Paper For 251

Nine AM and then she says “find a poem and pick a point copy that point and turn it in.” Sounds easy enough so I leave I head to the library to my spot near the big bay window here I can watch everyone pass by watch them go through their lives I try to start and this is the first time I crack open the text And look for something that inspires me Unfortunately I can’t find one They inspire me but not to write similarly So I try anyways And I fail I don’t just fail I suck So I close my book Close my laptop and go to class Then on the drive home I hear a song I want to copy So when I get home I try again Failed attempt number two The song is inspiring And it provoked me to write Except the result was the same song With different words It was as if I had run the song through a thesaurus Attempt number three The winner When I sit here Writing in my process notebook About how much this assignment makes me struggle Then I realize I have already read something similar With this feeling The feeling of not knowing what to write So writing what you think And doing exactly what the assignment says Without being deep Without apologizing for being blunt By sugar coating my words We read “Theme for English B” So this is my “Theme for English B” In a version designed for English 251.
