I challenge you to close read this poem and tell me what you think it is about!!! Is there a symbol? what does the symbol explain? Who is the speaker? What are they saying?

I am lost to Democracy,

His Sweet voice that whispers to my needs,

He hears my cries,

Amused by his face, ignorant to his words,

       This broken House has fallen!

But O scammed profit disguised as change,

Caught and taunted the Eagles, tried and convicted-

Still I hear his voice-

       Torn with reconstruction.

    I give up. The freed slaves? The ghost of President AB? I can’t spell his name.
