What is the poem analysis for West Indies USA by Stewart Brown?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

it is about a man who was visiting several Caribbean islands and was excited to reach Puerto Rico because he believed that it was going to be the greatest island or something like that and when he reached he was disappointed because he realized that it was just like the other islands. It had ghettos like the other islands and black people but the main difference was that it was owned by "The USA" which the persona thought would make it the best island of the Caribbean. In the end of the poem, the persona compares San Juan to a shattered TV set belonging to someone else

Asked by Wiki User

Caribbean is heaven on earth, its filled with beautiful beaches, wonderful & friendly people, great history, amazing food and a lot more.. . There are many islands compromising the Caribbean region & one of my most favorite one is the Cayman Islands. The Cayman Islands is the place for complete relaxation, exquisite dining, stong cultural history, scenic beaches, great food & awesome underwater activities. I would recoomend you strongly to take a trip to the Cayman Islands and experience various things. One strong recommendation is diving in Cayman Islands to see under water beauty but if you are like me and are scared of wearing a oxygen mask and going in water I would recommend trying Cayman Islands Submarines where you & your family have the rare opportunity to go underwater with Stingrays & Coral Reefs without wearing any dive suits, oxygen mask or even getting wet Book Online now Cayman Islands Submarines
