"I Am Offering This Poem to You" by Jimmy Santiago Baca is a great poem. This poem should be read because the literary devices that are being used are great for practicing the terms and learning them yourself. The poem is about a man giving this poem to somebody. This poem symbolizes love, and he states that love is the only thing a person really needs. The only reason why someone might not read this poem is because of how sentimental and "corny" it is, but the point that it is being made with it is almost completely different. The best part of the poem is its analogies and comparisons. Or another words its metaphors and similes.
Ya, your the one to talk about love and being corny. :) haha
