Emptying Town by Nick Flynn

The Poem is mysterious, very adventurous. Some of us might not see it, but it sinks deep in the words, and you don't need to reread twice to know that there is something behind the walls of this mysteriously hidden feeling, a feeling that swims deep in the words of the poet, the idea that maybe god sees something much greater in us than we imagine. The poem basically talks about Jesus, how Jesus rescued him, ripped his shirt to show him what he has done for him. Words are deep, and to understand you need to understand the poet, read more about him maybe you might see why he wrote this poem. Then you'll truly understand the poem. and these mythical words I use to describe the poem.

  1. It sounds like you did look more into into the poet. What did you discover?

    I look forward to meeting you on Friday at Park University. Don't forget to turn in your permission slip if you haven't done that already!
