Before I get into the great poem I would just like to have a small moment of silence for this great class…There we go. Onto the poem.

This is how the poem made me feel. Overall this poem just fills me with […]

This poem was inspired by the murderer in the film “Geralds Game.” This film was based on the novel made by the renowned novelist Stephen King titled “Geralds Game”. Hopefully, you enjoy this mysterious/murderous […]

I’d like to mention that when I refer to art I refer to music, literature(writing and reading), and literal art (painting, drawing, etc…)

Ah, this week we have been exploring many different kinds of art, […]

Ah…nothing good lasts for all of eternity. If it did it wouldn’t be so good now would it? As we near the ending of this course I really want to take my time and think of all the great short stories we’ve come […]

Class has been really good, especially encountering this novel “The devil in Silver,” it is a truly amazing and refreshing read. It explores the vast depths and loss of hope felt when someone is thrown into a […]
