11/2

Image result for metamorphosis kafka cartoon
In class today:

We discussed Ezra Pound's definition of poetry: "Poetry is news that stays news." And we applied his definition to a William Carlos Williams poem.

We began our study of Kafka.

The homework is to look through the Poetry Outloud website and find three poems with compelling "news". Then print a copy of each poem and bring it to class.

Have a nice afternoon.
