Poem Cycle (1st Draft) & Seque Poem

Please complete your poem cycle today. I will not interrupt you. Your poem cycle should be anywhere from 3-9,000 poems.

FINISHED? Please do the following:

Seque poem draft: Write a poem about absolutely anything you want it to be about. Whatever you choose, the poem should try to say something about the human condition. Remember that the human condition is not always about death and negative feelings. There is that thing called joy as well. This poem will begin a correspondence between you and another student poet. For now, you just want to write the poem. Don't worry about anything beyond that.

Still finished? Please complete draft #3 of your character poem. Call it draft #3. In draft #3 add imagery. Use figurative language to make your abstract ideas concrete. Use allusion, personification, onomatopoeia, simile, metaphor, symbol, allegory, alliteration, assonance, consonance, or kenning. Don't know the word? Look it up and learn the term. After adding imagery to your poem, making sure there is a clear image that is conjured in the mind of a reader, put your poem back into lines.

HOMEWORK: Please read about LINES.
