Class review

Today we read the poems “ son to mother” and “ mother to son”.son to mother was about a son asking his mom for advice. He wants to confront the rumors of how she has taken his manhood. The first 2 stanzas are about how he is a nonviolent person and how he minds his business. Mother to son is about a mother comforting her son. She goes on to say that life was no crystal stairwell for her. She tells him not to turn back and to keep going no matter how hard life gets. She also talks about how she’s still evolving and he should do the same. The quote of the day is I’ll go anywhere but backwards.
