Answer:

B. free verse

Step-by-step explanation:

I, too and I hear America singing are two free-verse poems written by american authors, both are landmarks on their respective themes and were heavily applauded and remain historic till this day, they are called free-verse because they do not fall into a category of hard structure of building poems, they do not have a rhyme scheme or a number of verses that are characteristic of any type of poem.
