# data[].attributes.body
In the poem she puts herself in comparison to things like birds and stars, ones that “they” (possibly society) want to capture, lock away or keep still. She makes the point that it is useless to try and hold these things captive, because there is no way (known) to catch a star, and because the pound can’t realistically detain a bird. These things will not stay still or confined and neither will she, and in doing that she was seen as a rebel.
