1984

So Stariha said that we have to post our take on the poem from Walt Whitman that she gave us in class, sooooo I am going to count this as my post for the week! Anyway, when I listen to the poem and read it, I took it as like Whitman was explaining the life of this spider and what he goes through and deals with. Then off of that description he compared the life of another person. When he said the bit about the spider sending out its strings or whatever I pictured like this guy on a like pedestal in the middle of a valley with other mountains around him but his rope want not long enough to reach any of them. soooo yea that's my take!
