Answer:

Who has been compared to an animal in a cage? Zaiser, Rene Poet Maya Angelou used the analogy between caged birds and Afro-Americans in the early 1960s, and between free birds and white Americans. The imprisoned bird stands in for the fight for liberation by Afro-Americans.

Caged Bird Summary and Analysis of "Caged Bird"

Summary

The speaker depicts a bird lifting off and gliding on a wind current in the opening verse. The bird enjoys its freedom and flaps its wings to feel the warmth of the sun. The free bird's flight is characterized by the speaker as "daring to seize the sky."

The free bird and the confined bird are contrasted in the second stanza. The imprisoned bird stalks his cage while fuming at having its wings chopped and its feet shackled. The bird sings in response to the flight-restricting cage, trimmed wings, and bound feet.

The speaker claims in the third verse that the imprisoned bird sings a song that is tinged with a fear of the things it does not know but nevertheless yearns for. Because it is a song yearning for freedom, the imprisoned bird's tune may be heard on a faraway hill.

Stanza four returns to the free bird, who is thinking about the upcoming high wind and the fat worms that will be waiting for him on lawns in the morning. He claims ownership of the skies.

Returning to the imprisoned bird, whose perch is "the tomb of dreams," the fifth verse describes how its "ghost yells on a nightmare scream." He expands his throat to sing despite having his wings cut and his feet restrained.

The third stanza is repeated word for word in the sixth and final stanza. The bird in the cage sings a song that expresses dread for the things it does not understand but longs for. The speaker reiterates at the end of the poem that "the imprisoned bird sings of freedom," which is why the singing may be heard on a faraway hill.
