Poem: Enslaved by Claude McKay Oh when I think of my long-suffering race,
For weary centuries despised, oppressed,
Enslaved and lynched, denied a human place
In the great life line of the Christian West;
And in the Black Land disinherited,
Robbed in the ancient country of its birth,
My heart grows sick with hate, becomes as lead,
For this my race that has no home on earth.
Then from the dark depths of my soul I cry
To the avenging angel to consume
The white man's world of wonders utterly:
Let it be swallowed up in earth's vast womb,
Or upward roll as sacrificial smoke
To liberate my people from its yoke!

Can you please mark the meter, and please include foot divisions and irregular lines.

Can you please mark the rhyme scheme and identify the sonnet type and why it is that sonnet type.

If possible can you please identify some figures of speech and literary devices the author uses and why they are important to the theme if you can't the 1st two questions are the ones I really need help on. Thank you so much I appreciate you.
