Reading and Deliberating

Details

Use the activity we have done in class to create a poem or short story with this Bukowski line as either:

a) the title
b) the first line
c) the last line
*make sure you give credit to the original author of the line no matter how you use it!


some helpful ideas:
-read the poem "The Meek Shall Inherit The Earth" by charles bukowski that contains the key line, maybe it will give you some ideas

-write down your thoughts or experiences with suicide, then work from there

-think about different types of suicide--not all suicides have to necessarily result in death--and go from there
