Writing about Poetry and Writing a Poem

We wrote a lot today about our favorite moves, our own lives, and how we are, in a way, the protagonist in our own story.  We even practiced writing about our daily live in the third person--interesting!  We then took a look at a poem by E.A. Poe in conjunction with the idea that we are all unique-- no matter who tells our story.  We will write a poem of the same length, and experimenting with similar punctuation-- to turn in this week.  Drafting continues tomorrow.
