Reading Response #3 (week of January 30)

The poem "Dib Dab" by Paul Beatty help me greatly. His poem showed me that one word can be described in many different ways. Beatty described the word "smooth" twelve different ways. He uses voice to show how different one word can be skewed many different ways depending on the person. "Homage to My Hips" by Lucille Clifton uses the image of her hips to show confidence. Clifton uses voice to say what her hips "do". She makes her hips seem like it can do multiple things at once.
