To Walt Whitman (by Angela de Hoyos)

0Hello. I need some help analyzing this poem. I can’t seem to find anything. The only things I found were the alliterations (the “man” and “my”, and the “spill” and “song”). Any help would be greatly appreciated. 02br

0Walt Whitman was a transndentalist author who wrote the book "The Leaves of Grass". This book was overtly sexual and contained hidden references to Walt's homosexuality. The above poem is complaining that Native Americans are not included in Walt's poetry, which includes almost every other oppressed group. Also, in the above poem, can't is spelled cant, a mistake, or a clue? I don't know. Good
