Constantly Risking Absurdity

 Today we read another poem from Lawerence Ferlinghetti, called “Constantly Risking Absurdity”. This poem compares a poet to an acrobat. The way he conveyed this message was through literary devices, word play, and creativity. I liked in the poem when he says “ where Beauty stands and waits with gravity”. I think this meant that standards of certain things are everlasting debates because everyone has their own opinion of when you reach a point fully.
