Don't you love New York?
I my favorite part of this poem is how you used conflicting statements to show just how big of a melting pot that this city is. For example, you say that the city is both the city is a place of bargins and high prices. To me Thats exactly what New York is.
ReplyDeletei really liked your poem because it describes new york really well. i also like it because you only put words in to describe. it is simple but it makes a lot of sense. -abby f
ReplyDeletethe words u chose wer very descriptive n described ny well. i especially liked the words "skyscrapers" and "money"
ReplyDeleteI liked how your poem used words that described the city very well and so concisely. It really captured the city well
ReplyDeleteI like how you wrote the pedestrians then drivers, and fast food then resturant. This gives it a very contrasting element
ReplyDeleteI like your poem. I like it because it is original. It has small phrases that make it sound very adrupt.I like the originality of that.

I like how you used one or two word lines. It really brings out how New York City is fast-paced and has sudden stops. That may not be how you intended it to be, but that's how I interpreted it.
ReplyDeleteI liked how you said, "Supersize" because that emphasizes how much larger our meals are compared to other states and places.
I like how it was both positive and negative parts of New York City. I think that it makes sense because this city isn't just one thing.

"Don't you love the city?" is my favorite line because it makes you want to read the poem again and really reflect and think about your answer to the question. I love the city.
