Thoughts on NC Notebook's Poem

Today we heard 4 people read their "Where I'm From" poems in class. They were awesome.

What struck me was the level of metaphor, the concrete details that anchored me and allowed me a felt sense of the authors and how they are created by where they are from...

I was also struck by one writer's mention of technology as a place where she is from -- it made me think of MCLars's I-Generation on Youtube. Check it out!

And check out our poems: you can link to them from the blog list to your right.

Thanks for reading and thinking with us!
