So ... we read a few poems as a group and then we did read this poem for the Journal for this unit

Half Way Dressed By Dennis Lee

I sometimes sit

When I’m half way dressed,

With my head in a sweater

And I feel depressed.

I’m half way out

And I’m half way in

And my head’s nearly through

But the sweater’s gonna win,

Cause the neck-hole grabs

Like as if it’s glue,

And my ears don’t like it,

And my nose don’t, too,

And I can’t stand sweaters

When they grab this way,

And they jump on a kid

And decide to play.

I’m half way dressed,

And I’m half way dead,

And I’m half way ready

To crawl back to bed
