    I attended the poem reading by Martha Rhodes from her piece, “The Thin Walls.” I greatly appreciated and enjoyed listening to her read her poems because her voice expressed emotion ranging from darkness and disgust to passion and innocence. Although the poems didn’t necessarily follow one another, they complimented each other. After listening to Martha, I hope to incorporate more repetition in my writing because it can be a useful way to create intensity, as well as amplify emotional affect (such as “worry, worry, worry” in one of her poems).
