Reminder: Quiz Thursday

As mentioned in class today, we'll have a quiz on the final day's readings from Ginsberg's Collected Poems.  While our discussion will still be open to all of the assigned readings, I've generously decided to give you a shorter list of poems that will potentially be covered on the quiz.  Here's that list:
  • Don't Grow Old
  • Brooklyn College Brain
  • After Whitman and Reznikoff
  • I'm a Prisoner of Allen Ginsberg
  • Sphincter
  • Personals Ad
  • Numbers in U.S. File Cabinet (Death Waits to be Executed)
  • After the Big Parade
  • After Lalon
  • Autumn Leaves
  • New Democracy Wish List
  • The Ballad of the Skeletons
  • Death and Fame
  • Things I'll Not Do (Nostalgias)
 
There will be a total of 5 points (out of 4) available, with two bonus questions, and altogether seven titles are included in the answers, so fourteen poems seems fair.
