Derek Walcott? s? Old New England? is a poem
concentrated upon the history of the beginning of
New England colonies in America, but instead of
presenting our past as a triumph, he manages to
illustrate our most prideful moments as a
dishonorable time period. By mentioning harsh
things and using vivid imagery, it fabricates the
poem to seem like a conviction rather than an ode
honoring the country. Symbolism is used quite
regularly in this poem. For example, ? the war
