=__**Sonnet**__=

this is the way that we live; edits can be made but there's no point; the life we're living will remain; i was reading a book; it made no sense but i could not change the words; just like life it is what it is no matter what we think; we dream to get away; but when we open our eyes you see were you are; and that were your going to stay; learning living your life; seems to be our job; this is the way that we live; an eraser and pencil work only for paper; real life you live day by day with no edits;

My poetry

When writing all of my poems I was focusing on the same thing. The poems all contain a point in time that I was describing whether it is a sonnet or a riff poem I either express my feelings or describe a moment in time. In most of my poems you can see signs of repetition because that was my way of getting the main idea of a poem across. I choose to use certain words that make you think and wonder well is this what she means by saying this or is it suppose to mean something else. The structure of the poems are basically the same depending on the type of poem that is is for example, my sonnet is structured like all other sonnets. I didn’t use a lot of figurative language in my poems because I felt as though that would have taken what I wanted to present in my poems. In my riff poem I used lyrics from Eminem’s song and I used it because I wanted to represent what his chorus was saying which is to make it though a tough time in your life. I used simple words because I didn’t what to make it difficult and make people wonder about what I want to say in the poems I want them to be able to read it and know what it is about and understand a poem. Although I have left poems in a suspense way such as the memory poem I ended it with “everything went black” because I want to make the reader think about that one specific poem and ending so that it makes them think about a time that they felt like that in their lives and they can relate to it. i wanted my poems to be easy but i also wanted the readers to be left with a short and simpe question that they could answer after rereading the poem.

=__Adrienne Rich__ =

Adrienne Rich has a unique was of writing which sets her away from all other poets. One thing that she does different from other writes is her tittles she has weird but interesting tittles because there are poets that don't even make you think because the poem itself does. Adrienne rhymes in her poems which is the reason that I picked her as a poet because she makes rhyming work in every poem and that’s something that make my poems or makes me want to write these poems because without rhyming I can’t write a poem and have it make sense. She intends on having a different meaning in her poem the meaning that she gets out of them when she writes them and the one that she wants the readers to think about. One of her lines is “someone in the library at closing time had learned to say modernism, trope, vatic, text”. Each different person that reads it can take that line as a different meaning and because that’s a line from about poetry people may write their poem in a different way. The way that Adrienne writes her poems leaves you with thoughts but not the kind that you have to figure things out but the kind that make you think about a situation in a different way. She writ’s about experiences and important things but through out all the poetry that I have read of hers the way that she examines society in her poetry has stood out the most for me because on one of her poems she talks about the world being this black hole. She makes things seem different then what they are meant to be she examines society in a new way that you would not ever cross your mind. Adrienne’s poems are influential into making you want to write down your points of view and the way that you see certain things in the world. When Adrienne started writing poetry she got the inspiration from her father and because of that she has written poems that will inspire many others that choose to read them and interpret them in their own way. Her poem “In those years” she starts out the poem with the line “ In those years, people will say, we lost track of the meaning of we”. And that line starts the whole poem to be something meaningful, with that one line she is saying that the meaning of we changed speaking about to people, at this point you can make the poem relate to you for example, we as in you and your family, you and someone special to you. She started her poem with a personal feeling and though but somehow still made it so that people can make it their own and can relate to it. All of her poems are very meaningful. .
