Poetry question.

    Hi there, I have to do a poetry question on Thomas kinsella for my homework this evening and I was wondering could someone clear something up for me.

    We have studied four of his poems in detail but I can only really find relevant points to answer the question in three of them, would I be better to throw in one half assed paragraph about the fourth poem or just deal with the three that really apply to the answer?

    I've a funny feeling I'll be marked down if I only deal with three poems but I can easily fill four pages with the three and don't want to put meaningless waffle that I can't develop into my answer!

    Any ideas guys? I'd really appreciate it :)

    I think you should go learn 2 more poems. 4 is very few especially if they don't fit together.

    4 is all our teacher is doing on kinsella but I see your point, I'll probably study one or two more myself just to use as a support because I think you're totally right. It does seem like way too little, even though one of the poems is 95 lines long and I could go on about it for years!
