Poem .

Langston Hughes // "The Negro Speaks Rivers" 
    In the poem, "The Negro Speaks Rivers" by Langston Hughes there are uses of figurative language. In line 6, ("I built my hut near the Congo and it lulled me to sleep.") of the poem the poet uses personification. In this line, the Congo River demonstrates how the river calms & soothes the narrator. Also, this line is personification because obviously the river can't physically lull the narrator to sleep.  Line 13, (" My soul has grown deep like the rivers.) would be considered as a simile. In this line, the narrator is comparing his soul to the rivers. The narrator is also explaining how, like the rivers, he has been through life and is familiar with life's struggles, obstacles, etc. 
    In conclusion, Hughes uses figurative language to show the struggles, importance, and experiences of African American lives.
