After browsing through many poems, I have chosen to do “An American Poem” by Eileen Miles. A good majority of the other poems i encountered were either too abstract for me to understand or too short to be analyzed in 5-7 pages. I believe the poem I have chosen contains many abstract as well as many obvious opinions. For example, the poem deals with the American dream, feminism, homosexuality, the arts and sciences of society among other themes. As for the digital essay, I am not entirely sure how I will do it. I tend to be most creative when I am not trying too hard, therefore I will try to be relaxed with the digital essay. So far, I find the other papers to more fun than this one.
Everyone wants to be happy, or at least we all think we do. But, what is happiness?
