    Hey guys, I'm going to be studying the poems of Adrienne Rich by myself. I didn't like Thomas Kinsella or Patrick Kavanagh (Loved Heany, Plath and Larkin, though) so I just want to have another one as a back up.

    What poems do you guys think I should do? I've done Aunt Jennifer's Tigers last night - it was awesome!

    That one's a great choice. I'd also recommend 'Power', 'Trying to Talk with a Man', and 'From a Survivor'. I loved all of them! :)

    I <3 Rich, she's amazing! We did the following:

    1. Aunt Jennifer's Tigers
    2. Living in Sin
    3. Storm Warnings
    4. The Uncle Speaks in the Drawing Room
    5. Trying to Talk with a Man
    6. Diving into the Wreck
    7. Power

    I would recommend doing numbers: 1, 2, 5, 6, 7

    The Roofwalker

    or something like that. I think it was the only poem of hers I actually liked. Or wait, it could've been 'Diving Into The Wreck". I'd do both of those anyway.
