      The poem shows the paradoxical nature of one belonging to a nation. The relation is paradoxical specially in American context. These sentences describe the paradoxes perfectly-

      1. “Possessing what we were unpossessed by”
      2. “Possessed by what we no more possessed”
      3. “It was ourselves we were withholding from our land”
