1: The title is 'The Weary Blues' which remind me of the genre the blues. The blues were made by African American people to sing and play out their sorrows. Which is why the genre is named the way it is as it originally was made for playing the blues of the people out.

2: The poem is organized by 2 stanzas. In the first stanza there are 22 lines and in the second stanza there are 13 lines.  

3:The tone of the poem is sad, pessimistic. and serious. In lines 29-30 reads, "I ain’t happy no mo’

And I wish that I had died.” This clearly signifies that the writer or the character is not happy.

4: The poetic devices in the poem are imagery, rhymes, repetitions, stanzas, and personification. The use of personification is when the writer writes, "He made that poor piano moan with melody." (line 10)  

5: The meaning of this poem is about how a sad man more specifically an African American started playing the blues and singing a sad song. He was using music to express his sorrows that nobody else would understand. The poet wants the reader to understand how much worries people have but the people will continue being themselves and act like everything is fine when it is not. Maybe the poet wanted to show readers different ways of relieving their worries.

Explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
