Notes on poems

For the first poem, one thing that I’m interested about is that it seems like the author describes a day from the morning to night throughout the poem, I’ve seen poem before telling stories, but never those with this type of sequence. For the second poem, there’re not a lot of complicated languages, but it still shows what the author wants to show about when he writes a poem. « The bug that irks you, the yellow butterfly, that catches your eye, and the furred thing with sharp teeth that repels you -- are all in your moment of history. » is a part that I really like, I agree with the fact that everything you’ve been through is part of your life, and you should face it.

Reflection on poem performance

What was hard and what was easy for you?  Remembering the lines is really an easy part of this assignment because each of us didn ’ t get a lot of lines and it took less effort and time than I expected before the performance. But coming up with how we perform is a really hard part , there is a lot of ideas when we start to consider it and in the end, we have to choose the best of them.  What made the performances interesting to watch?  The most interesting part of our performance is the last part where four of us use our native tongue to say the words that were in Spanish , this is more interesting than just simply saying it in English because it brings to the audience what the author is trying to express. What worked and what didn't in the class as a whole? We should maybe come up with more body movement in the next performance , that will give the audiences a better picture of what we are trying to tell , they can both see it and listen , whi...
