Choose two separate prompts (you may not use the same prompt twice):
Question 1) Write a short imitation of "Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird" using something other than a Blackbird as your focus. Maybe "Thirteen Ways of Looking at an Xbox" or something like that. You do not have to go to thirteen, but try to get as many as you can. Have fun with it!
Just be creative Ichoose Thirteen Ways of Looking at a walking dead or Titanic ( choose between those two if not comfortable , let me know if you want to write on something us but not internet please .Thanks)
Question 2) Given their biographies, should Pound and Eliot be considered American Lit, British Lit, or both? Give your opinion and some reasons why in a response of at least 100 words.(for this question I will send a file for the biographies of both authors Pound and Eliot)
Question 3- Langston Hughes, "The Negro Speaks Of Rivers", "I, Too" "Theme for English B" (836).
I, Too
I, too, sing America.
I am the darker brother.
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes,
But I laugh, 5
And eat well,
And grow strong.
Tomorrow,
I'll be at the table
When company comes. 10
Nobody'll dare
Say to me,
"Eat in the kitchen,"
Then.
Besides, 15
They'll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed-
I, too, am America.
1925, 1959
