The poem employs similes, imagery, hyperbole and a proverb.
In "Coolie Son" by David Dabydeen, the poet uses a number of figurative devices such as similes ("your skin is still dark as mahogany"), personification (“the canefields are whispering to you”), and metaphors (“you are bound to the earth like a trunk”). These devices help to create vivid imagery and deepen the emotional impact of the poem.
