> Post an entry that tells the class which essay option you have chosen to write on, and why you are interested in that topic. If you have opted for choice 3 or 4, tell us which poem you are considering as the focus of the essay.
I have chosen Essay #4 or Analysis. I am torn between choosing one of two poems. "The Second Coming" by William Butler Yeats, and "Africa" by Maya Angelou. In both of these poems there is rich text which will allow me to develop either the plot or point of view within either poem. I like them both but at this moment I am not sure which one I will write on. Since this week is going so fast I would like a day or so to decide on either of the two poems. Thank you.
