I knew a woman

I didn't like this poem, from my point of view it is very sexual. Even though, that is not my style, it is nice how the author expresses his feelings to her in such a textual way. The author mentions that she is younger. And that she has taught him a lot of things. It is a poem full of images and metaphors.

It was the first time I read a poem like that. It is interesting because the author makes it easy to understand, even he makes us think that it is easy to write something like that. It is clear he liked a lot that woman he knew.

A rose for Emily

I liked a lot this story. The story is full of clues so that you can infer the ending, but the ending is amazing, is something I never think of. Also, the story criticizes the society and all the gossips there are in a small town. It is such a good story.

First, you only know that her father has died and that she can't accept it, and that she doesn't want to change anything is her life. Then, she meets Homer, her love, but it is know that he is gay, then she buys arsenic and he disappears. The ending is a huge surprise and a little bit scary. The story involves a lot of topics like over protection, gossips and the undesired to change.
