Teacher's Readings

For my second arts requirement I chose the poetry read during class time by our lovely and talented teacher . Over all it was a great experience you see a person in front of you for months that the university tells you is qualified, but you do not really know until they prove it to you which the readings did for me. My favorite one in particular was the self portrait through amusement parks although I do not have a complete one yet I found I could relate up to this far with it, but with my own memories. The part about going down the slide and the ripping of the bathing suit reminded me of when me and my mother went down a water slide in tubes at the Jersey shore when I was 4 and she tipped it dunking me into the water.... I haven't gone with her on one sense. So to me it was easily relate able how tiny moments shape your entire life. How we all have a moment of family happiness like Maui or a point in life when we don't know what's next, but we are searching and hoping to find it. I deeply enjoyed hearing these readings.
