Analyzing the poem
Explanation:
We have the 1st stanza of the poem
Now we will count to twelve
and we will all keep still.

lets not speak in any language,
lets stop for one second,
and not move our arms so much.
i. Assonance: The prominent sound of the letter 'o' in - "Now we will count to twelve and not move our arms as much."
ii. Anaphora: It is the repetition of a word at the beginning of two or more consecutive lines - (let us not speak in any language, but rather pause for one second).
iii. Alliteration: is the repetition of a letter at the beginning of closely spaced words. The letter W is repeated in we will.
iv. Symbolism: The poet uses the phrase "count to twelve" to measure time here.
v. Metonymy: The poet used the word language to represent different races.
