Drafted thesis:
In “Dedication,” Czeslaw Milosz grapples with the existential weight of human suffering and history, positing that the true power of poetry lies in its capacity to bear witness, provide solace, and preserve truth in times of darkness, a struggle reflected in the poem’s somber tone and contemplative structure.

Below is a list of poems from be/trouble. a saturday night
an exasperated black woman said fuck it i’ll do it
i’m trying to remember when i started apologizing for my body
and who will be next
the talk
now i play black mama crying over dead son
freedom
i want the world to see
for the nice white ladies on parade
i call you sis because you my sista
some heroes wear their durags with the capes flapping

Advice
For this assignment, you may want to focus on a narrative element: time, character, plot, structure, and investigate its limits and possibilities. You may choose a narrative technique like second person point of view or free indirect discourse or elliptical plots or symbolism. You might want to explore narrative in other forms like poetry, or multimodal texts such as comics, or through experimental writing. You might want to attempt to use postmodern techniques like pastiche, parody, metafiction, intertextuality. You might want to explore the abject, or try queering your writing, or turn your attention to what narrative can and can’t do in relation to health, justice or ecology. You can build on a story you began writing in a class exercise, or steal an image or line from another work and make it your own. choose one below
