This...I should send this one to our music director. This is how he talks to us when we're not responding to his direction re: the details of dynamics.

I've read this poem multiple time...Hi Hannah, <br /><br />I've read this poem multiple times, loving it for the emotion and the depth. I'm still figuring out what it all means, appreciating its careful construction, the tension, and the weight of every word.<br /><br />This image: <br />"With gusto, with force,<br />the way you would eat alone, in the evening,<br />after not eating all day."<br />I love the juxtaposition, illustrating how a non-event can be an extreme expression of hostility.<br /><br />This is definitely one for a volume of your published poems.Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12588164536314320479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6171487865623213768.post-40177125465949257542010-09-09T01:11:21.804-04:002010-09-09T01:11:21.804-04:00OMG.
