Evanson and Field stories

The first story i read was by Field. I thought this story contain a lot of concrete details throughout the story. The details were so concrete it had a lot of imagery and i could picture every scene. An example of imagery is "I wont pick up the looks you flick onto the rug between us".
This one line in the story i could feel because it was so concrete. Example, A kiss here, no matter how delicate, shocks the eyeball underneath which doesn't yet think of itself as a physical sphere able to be touched. In the story Point and Line there was a lot of repetition of the girl, which we don't know who, and also this cat. Field brings the girl and the cat up many times in the story.

Now Evanson's story was well understood, unlike Fields it was quite all over the place and random. This story was in first person and it was descriptive about his internship. I also noticed how it was broken down into topics, or "stanzas". This made me pause and rethink of what i just read so I followed it quite well.

City Eclouge

I enjoyed reading the City Eclouge because it consisted of different poems. Poems i had to think about in order to get or try to relate. Others were straight to the point and i had no questions to ask.

I also noticed that in most of the poems there are pauses in between words. This reminded me of when we were discussing about poems in the poetry packet.

The author had a lot to say about cities and buildings. For example the buildings stood, to me it describes how the city is over populated and how the people of the city is polluting the area. Its very negative and descriptive to me.

poem packets

My three points of interest are...

1. The poem My Life, i thought was rather interesting because it had alot of detail, so i never got confused. I could picture everything. Also i thought it was like a story rather than a poem just because it was describing what was going on so clear.

2. The poem Thirteen ways looking at a black bird was set up rather different. It caught my attention how the author wrote it with roman numerals.

3.The poem Tell me what you know about dismemberment was confusing to me. It had some gruesome parts in the poem. I also thought it was interesting how the poem had the chapters in it.

My sunday

Today has been a lazy day for me. I slept in until my new alarm clock, the upstairs bathtub, woke me up. For those of you who are confused my mom remodeled the basement for me to live in this year while i commute to Eastern Michigan University. I like the space and privacy downstairs, but i can hear everything thats happening upstairs. I can hear every step, every toilet flush, and every shower or bath taken. This is going to take some getting use to. Anyways i have nothing really planned for today except work at five. Oh how i love sunday's.
