Hey guys.  So what are you guys thinking for this paper?  Have you chosen your poem yet?  So, as I said before, I chose "A Certain Lady".  I still like that poem.  But it seems like it could be difficult to write a paper on.  But we're in college - it's supposed to be that way. right?  lol.  I started reading "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe.  I heard Ms. Frailly tell someone that they did not want to do that poem.  I want  to know why not?  I know it's long, but does that mean it would be difficult to write this paper on?  I also like another poem, although I don't know the author.  It's called "The Wedding Ring".  It's not what I expected.  I expected it to be another one of those boring love poems.  But it's about how this lady's wedding ring has been neglected and is sitting with other stuff that is useless or not cared about.  It also says near the end something about how it symbols a promise that living wouldn't allow someone to keep.  I assume that meant that lady's husband had died and living would not allow her to remain in the promise of marriage to him. Sad.  Anyway, I want to finish reading "The Raven".  I guess I'll see you jokers in class on Wednesday.
