For next Tuesday: reading, other things

Read to p. 15 in your book; annotate, and prepare to discuss the poems in that section. (You might also browse the subsequent pages of sample poems; we'll pick a few to discuss later.) At some point, especially if you're having difficulty getting started on composing a poem, have a look at pp. 479-491, which contain suggestions for putting something down on paper. As I said, jotting down occasional thoughts, observations, and lines is a good habit.

Great job on the "found" poems. Those were enjoyable to hear, and I hope you enjoyed and appreciated the process.
