Nonono, i agree heartily, ralath. but we read really generic ones that have very little point instead of learning of some stuff to look up ourselves :/

What have you read? o:

Cant name them all off the bad, since it's been a while.. this year wasnt so bad, but previous ones were an absolute joke... This year we had Flowers for Algernon, at least.

Luckily, we DID get a few gems this year, but not nearly as many as i would've wanted. (the only exceptions i can think of is "The Tell Tale Heart", one of ray bradbury short stories, and two of the short novels she had us read as a class...)

...Why is it that the only time you post in my threads is to belittle me, or whatever i support? o_O

I wasn't belittling you. I was just shocked that you'd never heard of Yeats before. He's one of the big names in poetry. It doesn't say anything about you or your character. Then again, I often find myself thinking things are common knowledge when they don't seem to be.

I'm a big Bradbury fan, so we've got that in common, at least.

I suck at poetry.. well writing it. Understanding it is easy.. usually.

Nice job though.
