Anyone want to read their classroom appropriate blues song?
Listen to Carl Sandburg recite his short and famous poem "Fog." (1914)
Read about Sandburg on page 848 of the textbook. Then read his poem "Chicago." (1916).
Watch the youtube of the poem:
Write a short paraphrase about the poem. This should not be longer than three lines or two sentences.Do you remember how your paper should be headed, and how your first sentence should start?
Add a paragraph about the author's skill. Make the first one about the use of the literary term "apostrophe" (Poets use apostrophe to address enormous cities, inanimate objects, abstract qualities, ideas, and dead or absent people.)
Add a paragraph about what the author is saying about his topic. Use at least one citation from the text. Use parenthetic citation to note the line of the poem.
