HW: Read the list of allusions that will be in our next poem. Then: 1) Highlight where the allusions happen in the poem 2) Read through the poem, stop at each allusion, review the definition, and view/listen to linked material. Some of the links are 4-5 minute songs. You don't need to listen to the whole song (but you can), but listen to at least a minute or so to get a sense of the sound.
