I really enjoyed reading your blog Abby! Your thoughts on Lisa Bellear’s ‘Urbanised Reeboks’ intrigued me and seeing your thought process through the photo of your notes was interesting. Though overall it was a tad long, I appreciated the work that went into the analysis of each stanza. The use of quotes from the poem as well as exceptional language choices on your behalf made me really think about what you had written and find a different kind of appreciation for Bellear’s work. You went above and beyond what the brief class discussion covered. I absolutely agree with your statement “It is uniquely written to leave the reader to understand and interpret the message based on their experiences“. Overall, a well articulated blog. Well done!
