Blog Poem Project: Human Suffering
Auden interprets the scene as a human response to suffering. Do you agree or disagree with the poet’s interpretation of the painting? Why?
After your response, include a 10-line poem that describes how you view the ideas from the poem and painting, such as human suffering and how we respond to our own suffering and/or others. You must also identify free verse or traditional and meter. (Use the template in the GC assignment.)
Be prepared to share your poem to the class.
