Aristotle

Aristotle is another poem that we were assigned to read this week. It is written by Billy Collins. The main point that I got from this story was that it described the beginning, middle and end of a journey. This journey could be describing pretty much anything. it expresses that the best part of the journey is the beginnign. the middle become more serious and has more complex things going on that can minimize the amount of joy experienced. The end is thought to be the worst part of the journey, because the end is just the end, you face the reflection of all past memories and it is just over. This poem also didn't rhyme and was probably the shortest poem, and/or story we have had to read, making it my favorite.
