Essay 12/21/2002


Essays


A slow crafting of


line after line


solely for the purpose of


pleasing a teacher.


What if


it didn't matter


what the teacher thought?


Would we really write


the same essay?


Would we write about something else?


Expose a


hidden


never-before-seen viewpoint?


Or would we write


that same essay


as thousands before us


have written?

Would we be wrong,


if we found another


viewpoint?


Of a story taught


one way for


Generations?

Or would it be


seen as


true creativity and imagination?
