What type of figurative language is the use of the word
Selma here?
How does this example of figurative language affect the
last line of the stanza?
In the first line, Hayden mentions Selma. This is a
reference to the 1965 civil rights march from Selma,
Alabama, in which nonviolent protestors were attacked
by police.

I come again to see
the serene great picture that I love.
