"I am Offering This Poem" by Jimmy Santiago Baca" paragraph.
The emotion that "I am Offering This Poem" by Jimmy Santiago Baca expresses is humility because he says "I am offering this poem to you, since I have nothing else to give". The other emotion that is in this poem is love because after every passage he says "I love you", maybe he wrote this poem to somebody he loves. The passage "Keep it, treasure it as you would if you were lost, needing direction" means that he gives his heart to someone he loves, and tells them to treasure it. Another passage "it's all I have to give and it's all anyone needs to live." is talking about love.
