BUT--I was sadly mistaken. Very per say, dolefully mistaken. Luckily I had time to learn, and I took away these three points
1) Poetry isn't just pretty rhymes
2) Shakespeare isn't all powerful in literature
3) Analysis and creativity go hand in hand
1) Poetry isn't just pretty rhymes

3) Analysis and creativity go hand in hand
1- Poetry is more than pretty rhymes
Hocked Gems Poem:
With hocked gems Financing him Our hero bravely defied All scornful laughter That tried to deceive his scheme. An egg, not a table typify this Unexplored planet. Now three sturdy sisters sought proof Forging sometimes through calm vastness Yet more often over turbulent peaks and valleys. Days became weeks as many doubters spread fearful Rumors about the edge. At last, welcome winged creatures appeared Signifying momentous success. |
So, this poem is kind of neat- Its about Herc right?
Just Kidding--Its about Columbus

2- Shakespeare isn't all powerful
He's dandy and all, but he can forget things too- I mean what about Shylock's exit? How come Othello wont just ask some questions?

3- Analysis and Creativity go hand in hand
You need to be creative with analysis, otherwise you will return to surface level reading, and going backwards analysis happens because of creative representations--
By English teacher, they really mean Foster.
So, now what?
Step one: go to Saginaw Valley State University
Step two: try not to die in the pool
Step Three: Analyze everything they give me, knock out projects efficiently and in proper formatting, and generally bust some butt.
