Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 102 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing, reading, and thinking on a weekly basis in an informal setting.

How Poems Arrive
How poems arrive by Anne Stevenson, is very interesting because its a poem describing how poems come to be; at least by her interpretation. She says love "they're strongest when admitted blind, judging by feel, feeling with sharpened sense while yet their need is undefined." Meaning that like love, a poem is open for suggestion and not judge-mental. It is free to flow any way it wants to and needs no reason why.
