Explicating Baca

A typed explication of Baca's, "Fall," is due on Monday. Your explication should follow the outline provided in this document. The document also has a sample explication of "Richard Cory." Do your best to analyze the poem and its meaning.

NOTE: I'm not really sure how to answer the question of whether this is a rough or a final draft. I think it will be our final draft; you should do enough planning so that it is not too rough. I expect you to follow the directions on the poem sheet (completed in class), plan (on the yellow sheet), then type a thoughtful explication. What you bring in Monday should reflect your best effort to complete an explication.
