Reading Response 1 Week 6
This reading response is on Pretty Little Rooms by Katie Chaple. This poem was exciting to me, the comparison to the poems Ive been usually reading didn't have the depth that this poem does. From the subject matter: being able to pull an excerpt from a newspaper and create a poem from that. To actually pinpoint a technique that I would pull from Chaple isn't possible, mostly because there are so many things i want to improv on in her work. "Nobody asks: whose body was not loved enough, that her skull could travel like a pebble, could be used to punctuate the line of a man's body?" The last three lines of the stanza just speak volumes to me in so many ways. Like we talked about in class , the use of line inside of a poem is questioning. Being able to use that technique and make it coherent and work into the overall piece would be amazing.
