Literature Essay (Revised Edition)

Hours, a total of three.
Papers, a stack of many pieces.
Pens, enough to last.
And four questions.

All i should need, they say.

I try, to understand,
Bronte's individualistic flood.
And maybe Stoker's
Obsession with blood.
I try, to decipher,
Incomprehensible Roy.
And the double entendres
with which Carter toys.
I try, to catch upon,
Donne's sexual undertones.
And Boey's many concerns,
About existence, religion, home.

Time's up.

Others have put their thoughts
In words.
When will it be my turn?
