Poetry is weird

Today was the vocab test and then a light tasting of poetry. We read two fairly odd poems and looked at figuring out some deeper meaning. In class we concluded that the death of a toad is more than merely the death of a toad.
We briefly looked at some Em D. bird poetry and your assignment is to come up with a three to four sentence explanation of deeper meaning within that poem.
Upcoming: Poetry Analysis for Monday and then we begin Debate prep.
P.S. Someone remind me to talk about the extra credit option in class on Monday. I keep forgetting.

Ms. Meister, for the poetry project does it need to be double space? I can't write up a full page w/o double space.

i think this project is ridiculous. we have too much to worry for. not only this poetry project, but the debate too! its even tougher when we dont believe in what we're arguing for!!!!
