To Mr. Chunghoo,
I am introducing your poem War of the Worlds to my 8th grade English class. Students often ask if the poet really means the larger meanings we get from poetry. Would you give me a message for my class. I am presenting it this Friday Feb.22.

I would appreciate anyone else's comment about the poem as well. Thank you,
Joie Samuelson

I like it. I do think there´s peace in the observation of things and even in the sorriness of the statement of fact. Just how far apart are our worlds?

Theirs no peace in this piece…
Although it is so true,
Theirs really not much we can do…
I’ll just agree with you…
