The Poets Progress: Poems Are Delicate Creatures
http://thepoetiersprogress.blogspot.com/2014/04/poems-are-delicate-creatures.html
Monday, April 21, 2014. Poems Are Delicate Creatures. Make it and it is. There was one section of William Carlos Williams writing I found very interesting. His poem The Descent of Winter,. Reminds me a great deal of Gertrude Stein’s work Tender Buttons. Similar to Stein, Williams writes in a way that does not explicitly describe what he is talking about, but almost talks around it, behind it, about it, through it, describing an object, or a place with vivid. 8221; I like this section of Williams’ p...

http://ahobbittrailtofollow.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
A Hobbit Trail to Follow. Wednesday, January 29, 2014. A Volcano. Past and Present. In reading Emily Dickinson's sonnet #754, the imagery she uses surrounding the power of a gun is magnificent. She compares the power of the gun to Mt. Vesuvius, a volcano that destroyed the entire city of Pompeii in AD 79. She makes the gun seem admirable, desirable, and gives the reader a feeling of immortality. The narrator of the poem is the gun, who ends the poem concluding:. For I have but the power to kill,. In the ...

A Hobbit Trail to Follow: On War and Peace.
http://ahobbittrailtofollow.blogspot.com/2014/03/on-war-and-peace.html
A Hobbit Trail to Follow. Wednesday, March 26, 2014. On War and Peace. Once again, racism rears its ugly head. Then I read Maya Angelou's poetry. She's not ignorant to what happened, she's well aware of her ancestor's history. However, she is more removed from slavery than McKay is. She has the ability to see the hope despite the crushing weight of opposition, of wrongdoing. Her poetry, most of it, is more hopeful. In her poem " Million Man March. Let us come together and cleanse our souls,. I also found...

Punch Injustice in the Face. Your weekly dose of Poetry, Feminism, and Nerdy all in one place. April 3, 2014. Langston Hughes deserves the hug Walter Dean Meyers would give him. 8221; and Walter Dean Meyers’ poem “ Harlem: A poem. 8221; (This may in fact be an excerpt from his novel. But the internet is not being very resourceful today.). The constant juxtaposition is discomforting, and serves to make the reader realize how problematic and the situation is. Sparrows sit on fire escapes. To learn the tunes.
