Reader Response # 6: Find a Poet

The poet I chose for this was Kenneth Carroll. I can relate to the poem "In the mornin" because everybody has a brother or a sister who messes with them or keeps them up at night. To me the poem was alright it had funny words in it but it was alright to me even though i really dont like peoms without a beat to them. I also like the poem "Ridin Shotgun". I like it better then the first one because the second one relates to my grandma askin me if i want to ride shotgun whenever she is going somewhere. But i dislike the fact that they referred to death in so many ways.with the cancer and the going blind and eyes gettin taking.
