Read "The Secretary Chant" on page 428 of our textbook.
Write a First Response to "The Secretary Chant."
Use the following writing prompts: Could you relate to the secretary's feelings about her role at the office? Why is it significant to the poem's meaning that the speak is a woman? What part of the poem affected you most? Why?
Or free-write your own response.
Be sure to provide specific textual details and quotations from the poem to justify and/or explain your response. Remember, a first response is not a summary -- use 2-3 quotations from the poem and tell how the poem affected you.
