Read the passage from "The Caged Bird."

What is the literal meaning of stalks?

But a bird that stalks

down his narrow cage

can seldom see through

his bars of rage

his wings are clipped and

his feet are tied

so he opens his throat to sing.

the stem or main axis of a plant

the slender supporting part of anything

to pursue or approach prey stealthily

to walk with measured. stiff strides
