My First Impression

My first impression of Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock is that this is a good love song. He writes it differently than most people would expect people expect a love song to be special and heart felting but J. Alred Prufrock changes that and turns it into an amazing song that tells about how his love's ruined.

Music as Lietrature

To me music is literature just with a snappy beat and rhythm in the singers voice. Music is literature just not with same boring voice everybody uses when they read or talk.

Poem Analysis Comparison

I believe that me and Jessica had the same thoughts about the poem. I think she's right people do come to expect things but those dreams end up getting ruined.

The theme of the poem "Immigrants in our own Land" By Jimmy Santiago Baca to me is that things don't also go the way you want them to go

His tone to me sounds serious

His mood seems sad and depressing

Simile is one of the literary devices Baca uses. "They used common sense like scholars use glasses and books to reach the world."

An Earth Shattering Fart

I loved this story it was amazing. It kept me interested and wanting to keep reading more unlike most stories. I think we should read more stories like this. I liked how the story showed that doing one little thing can effect the present and future.
