Description overtime again
just the two
of them

a brief, frantic
moment in
the stacks

Shakespeare
and Donne, Poe
and Dickinson

wax poetic
in silence
as something

new blooms
amid their
dusty bindings

Night life in a mausoleum. definitely in your Dorothy Parker mode.

I love the end, the silence of the venerable classics as something smaller but infinitely realer to it's participants takes place oblivious to them. That is the essence of romance!

I love Poe, too, but there are so many people who just don't read anymore...

Teague-Drydan In reply to Blueskye27 [2008-12-15 03:05:09 +0000 UTC]

very true. ...maybe it's his tales? I know i hardly touch those...too dark & confusing for me. His poetry's top tho. I love his "The Bells" and "Annabelle Lee."

i'll admit that i haven't read anything much recently...'cept the wonderful stuff on DA, but I love reading the oldies. Preferably the really olde Brit lit...

**gasp** I'm so excited! I'm talking all Eng classes next semester...I've got 1 or 2 Lit classes, mainly poetry I think... can't wait! Hopefully I'll find time to drag out one or two of my anthologies

Thanks! I hope so too. I'm really looking forward to them. 'specially my two poetry classes. Gonna be writing a lot, I hope.

What type of class(es) do you teach?

Blueskye27 In reply to Teague-Drydan [2008-12-16 00:12:30 +0000 UTC]

I teach reading and basic writing, mostly remedial English, but I've also got a Comp. II class next semester that I'm really looking forward to since it's literary analysis. Whoo hoo for lit classes!

Good luck with your writing.
