Poem - Discourse on the Logic of Language

When I first looked at this poem as it was being handed out in class, I honestly couldn't imagine how much could be gotten out of it. Turns out that the meaning lies greatly in it being read aloud. I enjoyed hearing Dr. Hollingsworth read this piece aloud because she did it without messing up once. It seems like one of those poems that if it is read aloud wrong then it could loose most of it's impact. But because she read it very well, it kept all of it's impact. I can see how this poem would sound fantastic if it were read aloud by a group of people. I was hoping that we could all read it aloud as a class but i was too shy to make such a suggestion. The whole poem reminds me the free-writing exercise. Most words resemble the others, and they are common in meaning. I felt that this poem was a great piece to discuss on Thursday, because it went so well with out free-writing discussion. Very cool poem, and I would like to hear a group read it sometime.
