Suggestions for Approaching Poetry

  1. Assume that it will be necessary to read a poem more than once. Give yourself a chance to become familiar with what the poem has to offer. Like a peace of music, a poem becomes more pleasurable with each encounter.
  2. Do pay attention to the title; it will often provide a helpful context for the poem and serve as an introduction to it.
  3. As you read the poem for the first time, avoid becoming entangled in words or lines that you don’t understand.

Discuss the following K-OS lyrics based on what we've learned when comparing Western and Eastern Mysticism.
Have a careful listen to a variety of current or classic tunes by a variety of recording artists.
Which artists demonstrate our understanding of Western Mysticism, which are clearly Eastern, are any a little of each?

Microcontents Flourish at STJ Blogs (LA 9)

Thanks to a few bloggers for helping me work out the bugs in the microcontent code. Movie, music, and video game reviews appear to be the most popular.
