Here is one of the poems we read in class:
Here is this poem for homework
There were no signs by
Irving Layton
By walking I found out
Where I was going
By intensely hating,
how to love.
By loving, whom and
what to love.
By grieving, how to
laugh from the belly.
Out of infirmity I
have built strength.
Out of untruth, truth.
From hypocrisy, I wove
directness.
Almost now I know who
I am.
Almost I have the
boldness to be that man.
Another step
And I shall be where I
started from.
