1. Read the poems assigned on the syllabus. I'm attaching a scan of the Rita Wong poems--please read "value chain" "fluorine" "the girl who ate rice almost every day" "nervous organism" "mess is lore" "forage, fumage" "recognition/identification test" and "chinese school dropout"-------when you read "recognition/identification test, the left column are plants and the right column are corporations: in your mind see how many plants you can visualize and how many corporate logos from the lists.
2. Select the poem for your first essay. Do some brainstorming on it. Try to use the strategies we use in class: make inventories of images, patterns, structure, etc. And try to draft up a thesis you might use for the essay. Bring the brainstorming and thesis ON PAPER to class.
3. There is NO blog assignment over the weekend ;P
