People Getting Divorced By Lawrence Ferlinghetti

        In  the poem "People Getting Divorced " by Lawrence Ferlinghetti the poet made the reader see  divorce through the eyes of the spouse. He used the poem to explain the way the spouse feels , the way they think , and  impact divorce have on the people involved. Lawrence Ferlinghetti made a comparison between divorce and loosing one of your pairs of shoes . In a way it makes perfect sense since people say marriage is like discovering your other half then divorce must feel like loosing your other half.

Howl by Allen Ginsberg

        The poem " Howl by Allen Ginsberg " poem had a  dark and gloomy feeling to it . As i was reading the poem i felt  like the poet was telling the me a story about  his life. In part 1 of the poem captured me  he talks about people in his life . Allen  Spoke highly of these people , he even called them  " The best minds of my generation" but to me these people were unstable. He made these people sound poor, suicidal, crazy. These people sounded like the outcast of society . He used a lot of repetition to express himself in this poem.
