I started to write my paper. It took me a while, but I finally realized the the poem applies to me. I have been putting off college for years, and I have felt the festering sore as I look back and realize that I could have graduated already if I started sooner. It took alot of thinking for me to realize this. I'm sure this poem applies to everyone in some respect.

I think it is awsome that you have related to this poem! You have accepted it for its creativity...who knows? You might turn around one day and write poetry as good as the next guy!!!
I agree that this poem relates to anyone. It took me awhile to rite my essay. A few hours later..it clicked..to me in the poem Harlem, it like a cycle of negativity and then positive thoughts of how dreams/ goals and the emotins that people go through in their lives.
yes.....I can see why putting of college can feel like a festering sore...i too have put college of for a while and it bothered me for the longest time. Although I felt this poem was about death I can see how it relates to the dream of recieving a degree.
