Kiss the mug and smile like you mean it
If I could tell you all the shadow secrets that I am
I promise, you still would never know.
BBQ Buddha drinks and
Never placid, candy splintered shattered soul.
Last year I spent my whole spring break
Never less than eyelash deep in snow.
There are seven serpents that make the color of my eyes
They cry but will never again see the light.
Petal wet and trembling flesh
Bare breath in red that never reaches truth.
I have seven self given injuries all the blood has gone,
Battle scar piercing I can never live without.
For the truth is, I am the end of star light
A neverland dream delusion Donut dancer.
PERMISSIONS: To view the blog, post on it, and comment on posts, you must be invited. I will send you an email invitation to join the blog, and then you must follow the instructions to join up and begin posting. You can't join the blog without first creating a Google account.
POSTING: Post your poems by clicking "New Post" at the top right of the page. Paste your poem into the window.
LABELING: Then label the post with the assignment name (i.e., "confessional poem," "sonnet," etc.), your name (i.e., "Tony Barnstone," etc.), and the week (i.e., "week one," "week two," but not "week 1"--spell out your numbers). If you post a poem in week two that is due in week three, label it "week three." When you begin to type in a label, the program will fill it in for you, so your post will be labeled with the rest of the poems in the same category.
COMMENTING: Afterwards, you can "comment" on the posts of your classmates. Post "group one" and "group two" one-page critical responses as "comments" on the posted poems, but also print out copies for me and for the poet and give them to us in class.
