The tone is slightly comic‚ as the speaker suggests that there was enough alcohol on the father’s breath to inebriate a child.

The poem is a direct address from the

    We Wear The Mask My reaction to the poem “ We Wear the Mask” is a feeling of truthfulness. It tells about what people see and what others hide.

They are people we wouldn’t know that are at home cutting themselves are even attempt to do suicide that only the lord knows. They can talk like

    IToo Sing America” is a poem by Langston Hughes about racial equality. All humans are created equal and should not be put down because of race.
