Literature Richard Cory and My Popa’s Waltz

1-Describe Langston Hughes’ view of America by examining two of these poems:
Madam and the Rent Man, I two Sing America, Mother to son. Also, why is this portrayal of African American controversial?

2-William Carlos William uses an “open” style and format called free verse in The Red Wheelbarrow and This is Just to Say. How is that different from poems that are more “constructed” like Richard Cory and My Popa’s Waltz? Why does Robert Frost say that “free verse is like playing tennis without a net”.
