Explanation

Poems emphasize language's musical qualities

Compact language means the same as condensed language: with little you say much.

According to the video, including intense feelings is part of the content of poems.

With this adjective, the author relates to a specific ethnic origin.

The poet is talking about priorities inside different lives and communities.

Dreamer is the name people give to the first or second generation of immigrants in the USA. They usually have English as their first language.

The prefix "il-" creates an opposite meaning for the word legal. The author creates a contrast between the idea of missing words between languages and the names people give her because of her origin.

With the cord "pressed", the poet creates an image of reading these authors closely. It uses the characteristic of condensed language.

The poet closes with an image of transformation that is gradual. This is the reason why she selects the adverb "slowly"
