While going through the readings In week 11 about poetry I believe that my ideas still do remain the same about poetry because to me poetry was always something that was very interesting to read and also write about, I always thought poetry gave me ideas with the type words being used by some poets and also let me be able to expand my vocabulary a little by also using these words along the line. While reading “How To Read A Poem” by Edward Hirsch a few ideas stood out to me and it came in the second paragraph as Edward stated “The goal of careful reading is often to take up a question of meaning, an interpretive question that has more than one answer. ” which I agree with very much because when you read something or such as poetry you are trying to get your answers solved to the questions you may have in the beginning of the reading or poetry and those answers do not come until you keep reading through out the lines.

I partook in the pieces that had a good melodic to it instead of a wrecked beat where you can’t really appreciate what’s happening.I concur that verse gave me thoughts with the kind words being utilized by certain artists and furthermore let me have the option to grow my jargon a little by additionally utilizing these words along the line.
Hello Flurim, I too thought poem as being very interesting. Poem does speak to us in many ways, it makes us experience different types of emotions good, bad, hurt or sad. I think it’s a piece of art that has such a powerful meaning behind it. Embracing ambiguity was an interesting piece in “How to Read a Poem,” by Edward Hirsch. We can all read the same piece and still have different perceptions that to me makes for a great discussion, debating what we think may be the right way but instead behind it all it has the same concept. This can lead to confusion or complication for us readers, but the piece can be crafted purposely to create humour or to have a deeper meaning, or accidentally. As in Shakespeare, the use of ambiguity is used to dramatize the uncertainty in life and the unconscious forces driven with revenge.
