Read the passage from “the caged bird.”
but a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams
his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing.
read the passage from shakespeare’s “sonnet 29.”
when, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,
i all alone beweep my outcast state,
and trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries,
and look upon myself and curse my fate,
in both poems, the connotation of the underlined language implies
despair.
disgust.
hatred.
sorrow.

Despair.

Explanation:

The excerpts from "The Caged Bird" and Shakespeare's "Sonnet 29" express a sense of despair as both the poem and sonnet are dealing with the destruction of their(bird and the poet's) hopes and dreams.  

In "The Caged Bird" by Maya Angelou, illustrates the scream and suffocation due to being marginalized and the slaughtering of her dreams as the poet says "a caged bird stands on the grave of her dreams" and "his wings are clipped and his feet are tied".

Similarly, Shakespeare's sonnet 29 also emphasizes the desperation of the poet as his aspirations too were being ruined as the theaters were being closed(in 1592 due to a sudden outbreak of Plague) and weeps over(bootless cries) his "outcaste state" and calls it "disgrace with fortune", and "curse his fate".
