The poem discusses two black men, Samuel and Langston, living as slaves in Missouri in a time when slavery was legal. One man is a writer and one is a bard. It references the inhumanity of slavery and how slaves were seen as property to be owned and killed. The poem suggests that achieving recognition and respect for their literature and talents would be difficult as black men in a society where white men held power over them.
