Discussion Quotes and Comments 16 - Terrance Hayes - How to Be Drawn

Hi all, We're switching gears completely and covering some very contemporary poetry for the remainder of this week, as well as a new Discussion/hw format. Due tonight is a reading of Terrance Hayes' How to Be Drawn . Dr. Yolanda Franklin will be joining us tomorrow morning to discuss the book, so tonight, instead of DQs, please quote a few passages from the book which stood out as interesting to you. Please include your quote in the comments and explain why each of them was interesting or stood out to you. Any and all poems for the book are welcome- since it's a collection, you can read the poems in any order and quote from them in any order as well. Thanks! Looking forward to tomorrow.
