    The first poem, “Ode to Browsing the Web,” written by Marcus Wicker describes how people can live in two opposite worlds. One world being addicted to the Internet and the other world before the Internet was created. Rather than before, “spraying aerosol lines on warehouse walls in words I cannot comprehend” we are now writing on Facebook walls, blogs, and exposing our personal business to anyone (Wicker, 2013). “Heartbeat I’ve been told the Internet is an unholy place, an endless intangible stumbling ground of false deities” could refer to the endless possibilities of pornography, websites that allow married individuals to find another, or even placing the Internet above your beliefs (Wicker, 2013).

    This article is, in my opinion, an example of how personal narrative can sometime confuse the author’s purpose. In order to frame her arguments she discussed her experiences with her family, and specifically how she was born a twin to a stillborn sister. She explains her families lack of coping and how her family effected her life, but I failed to focus on the overarching idea that she wanted to get out because of how distracting the stories from her personal life are. Instead found myself thinking that her story was strangely personal without much justification for why it was this way. While the point of her article, the balance between truth and respect, was somewhat present overall, the sections of personal narrative that she decided to include muddled it.…
