Okay, not the end of poetry just yet. We have been asked by the RPO to play around with poetry and music. The two often go together as you probably figured out by now.
During 7th period, please work on the project posted below this post. Begin playing around with ideas and a draft. I'll give anyone who completes a draft of this poem and turns it in, extra credit. I'll give MORE extra credit, if you are willing to work on a second or third draft of your poem. I'll give EVEN MORE EXTRA CREDIT to any poet whose poem is selected by the RPO.
There are a variety of other poetry and fiction contests coming up as well: SOKOL (deadline Jan. 27) and Hollins.
During 8th period, let's go next door to begin looking at some fiction stuff.
HOMEWORK: Keep workin' on the RPO poem and other poems you want to complete. Feel free to read Ambrose Bierce, F. Marion Crawford, Algernon Blackwood, and Ray Bradbury in the suspense/horror collection. Please refrain from reading the other authors at this moment. We'll get to them.
