@JeffreeStar I don’t need anything but I just want to say thank you for helping so many people in their time of need and using your platform to set an example for others!!! #JeffreeStarApproved
@MrsGourgeot Q10: Yes, Yes, Yes, The Speaker claims that poetry brings “a life without boundaries” and through reading poetry and learning more about it (thanks to you @MrsGourgeot ) I have realized that no matter how I feel or what I am going through poetry can help break those boundaries
@MrsGourgeot Q9: The central message is that poetry is a bridge between Everyone and everything, the good of humanity and also the cold, harshness of humanity #teachlivingpoets#msaplitchat
@MrsGourgeot Q8 pt2: Through poetry the reader is allowed to uncover and learn about different aspects of people all over the world and all throughout time and from these experiences it helps us grow as people, by being able to empathize with others.
@MrsGourgeot Q8 pt1: To the speaker “a life without boundaries” means poetry allows people to do and experience things that they otherwise would never be allowed to do and the speaker and I share this same meaning. #teachlivingpoets#msaplitchat
@MrsGourgeot Q7: the breaks on the poem on lines 5, 12, 14, and 16 allow the speaker to offer more drama to the aspects they are discussing on the lines leading up to these breaks, thus reinforcing the ideas they bring. #teachlivingpoets#MSAPLitchat
@MrsGourgeot Q5: The metaphor of the fashion mall resonated with me because it discusses how the idea of a mall is fun, and then as you enter you realize your ideas were mistaken because it’s one large ploy to envelop you and change your ideals. #teachlivingpoets#MSAPLitChat
@MrsGourgeot Q4 pt1: The Juxtaposition contained in the metaphors for poetry between “the razors, the judgments, all the tick-tock bronze” and “the fashion mall” brought emphasis on the cold and harsh nature of razors, judgement, and bronze
@MrsGourgeot Q3: I find that when the speaker uses “You” they are talking to a student or person who only sees poetry on a surface level and through this it establishes a sort of student-mentor bond between the reader and the speaker.
