Right now, i feel like a bird
caged without a key
everyone comes to stare at me
with so much joy and reverie
they don't know how i feel inside
through my smile, i cry
they don't know what they're doing to me
keeping me from flying
that's why i say
i know why the caged bird sings
only joy comes from song
she's so rare and beautiful to others
why not just set her free?
so she can fly, fly, fly
spreading her wings and her song
let her
fly, fly fly
for the whole world to see
she's like caged bird
fly, fly
ooh just let her fly
just let her fly
just let her fly
spread the wings
spread the beauty

how does the allusion in the poem impact the meaning of the poem?
question 9 options:
referencing flying the reader understand what it is like to be a famous musical artist. writing songs gives the artist the ability to fly beyond their normal surroundings by exploring the world of lyrics, and rhythms, and sound.
being written by alicia keys, the poem carries validity and weight that others could not offer to the words which makes the poem very meaningful.
referencing a caged bird makes the reader think of maya angelo and her famous poem about being caged up, being unable to fly, and being trapped.
referencing spreading her wings makes the reader think of the common saying "spread your wings" - meaning- leave what you know behind and take on an adventure.
