What moments or lines of the poem seemed most significant and revealing?
Assignment for a Blackboard Discussion post:Review the poem in the Alexie PDF called “Dear Emily Dickinson.” Discuss your interpretation. Can you place it in conversation with any of Alexie’s other assigned reading—I’m thinking most specifically of “Somebody Else’s Genocide.”Choose one of Alexie’s poems from either the PDF or the textbook. Analyze the poem. If you have come to some kind of interpretation, discuss how Alexie carried you there. What moments or lines of the poem seemed most significant and revealing?
