Document Summary

Your final essay for this course will be a third close reading, responding to one of the prompts below. You are welcome to refer to other poems on the syllabus in order to make comparisons that support your argument, but your essay should focus mainly on the poem(s) identified in the prompt to which you"re responding. Your essay should be 750 words in length, double-spaced, in a standard 12-point font with 1- inch margins. Please give the essay a title that describes its content. Instead, just dive into your analysis, beginning with a specific observation. I encourage you to use the first-person pronoun ( i ) in your writing for this class. You will need to write in line numbers, since they don"t appear on the page in brooks"s or. Hayes"s books (without line numbers, your citations will be considered incomplete! Be as precise as possible in your analysis.
