this poem is truly about columbus going to someone else land and even the birds sense that their will be trouble so thinking that he was doing a good for his people he was doing bad for others i believe that if he truly wanted land he should go look for his own not claim other people's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is a poem that speaks the typical colonial expedition of Colombus as an allegory.
