This found poem is located in the story “Thank You M’am“, from paragraph 1 until paragraph 7. The author of this story is Langston Hughes, created in 1958. There happens to be an internal conflict in this poem, which is Man vs. Himself. An evidence from the text to support my thinking would be that Roger hesitates for a moment, struggling about will he choose to stay or run away— “whereupon she turned him loose—at last. Roger looked at the door—looked at the woman—looked at the door—and went to the sink.”
