The attitude of a spectator is criticized in this poem because “life is not a spectator” and “a man screaming is not a dancing bear.” In a section of this poem, a group of “scum” are repeatedly described as “standing” in places like the cabin, the deck, and under the stars. The title location of this poem is described in one part as “pitted with smallpox” and “dynamited with alcohol.” The themes of this poem were later developed by its author into the essay Discourse on Colonialism, which attacked the humanist argument for colonialism. This poem opens with the narrator saying “beat it, …, you cop, you lousy pig” after the first statement of the refrain “at the end of daybreak.” For 10 points, name this book-length poem by Négritude poet Aimé Césaire that describes a “homecoming.” ■END■
