The poem mentions many facets of Chinese culture and, as Dinwiddie recognizes, asserts that culture is timeless and valuable even as Chinese people immigrate to other lands. Dinwiddie calls Lindsay's portrayal "whimsical" and contrasts it with his "terrified" poem "The Congo." She also claims that the poem has "the slant angle of vision peculiar to the Eastern eye" and hints to a perceived mystery surrounding Asian cultures.

Description An account of the resource The author of this poem claims that she is "an Asian who wants to be white" and begins the poem with the choice, "I want to be more American." When asked what's stopping her, though, she responds, "That's not who I am." The root of her desire to be "more American" and "white" is her shame toward being marginalized as Asian. She states that identity is "fluid, messy, and stained with trauma and pain." She finally decides that her American dream is to build her own.

Its title refers to the fictional central character, Nias, an enslaved black man who is characterized as an unintelligent, unhygenic, yet hard-working giant. The writer uses racial slurs to describe him as well. Nias notably attracts many black women wherever he goes, who fight over being able to sleep with him due to his size. He later performs manual labor for the Confederate Army, ultimately dying to save a white man's life.

Gibson claims that literary realism is sometimes "vulgar" and "obscene" just to be shocking, which makes it "pornographic trash." He asserts that the Messenger's quality lies in the fact that they do not accept such trashy works, as well as in that many literary formats are used.

It's unclear if these poems have any significant meanings behind them, but the tone of each of these poems appears to be negative. In "The Flowerless Garden" there is only a shadow and no flowers to gaze upon in a torn garden. In "An Elegy for a High Lady," the author explains that flowers will not be placed on a grave site. In "The Bed Curtains" and "Alba: The Lute," each refers to being cold and walking around the wet dew outside. Bruce Morrissette, who is credited with these adaptations, was asked in this issue if he was a student of the Chinese language and he responded negatively, and "hinted dubiously at the assistance of a laundry man in reducing the original Chinese into crude English."

John Brown was an abolitionist who eventually was hanged for his assistance in freeing slaves and especially for his involvement in the Harper's Ferry raid in 1859. The poem was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1929, which is a possible reason that the student decided to review the poem. It was later performed as one performance staged dramatic reading and recorded and entered into the "Library of Congress's National Recording Registry for the recording's 'cultural, artistic and/or historical significance to American society and the nation’s audio legacy'" in 2015. The student conducting the review described the poem as having "brought back the days of the Civil War in a style which is reminiscent of the old South itself. Every line breathes romanticism, heroism, courage, and chivalry. His portrait of Lee particularly is a fine work..." indicating the celebratory memories of those who supported the confederacy of the Antebellum South during the Civil War. For many Southerners, there was a feeling of romantic nostalgia of the easy and elegant times of the plantation era, something which many Confederates hoped to return to one day.
