A Mid - Summer's Day

Because I stay'd up late watching a flick I am able to sleep throughout the morn'. Now I must get up and get dressed quick 'cause I hear june bugs that have just been born.

Now my tummy is hungry and growling for some sort of fruit like a peach or plum. Now it's so late that Mommy is howling so granola can wait or she'll think I'm dumb.

I'm off to have fun with friends at the pool, we can dive in the deep then have a swim. Though 'tis so hot we will still remain cool. All of our swimming has made us quite trim. **

**After a long day we're home from the park. Thank goodness by ten it's finally dark! **

“My only love sprung from my only hate!/ Too early seen unknown, and known too late! ... That I must love a loathed enemy” (I.v.136-139)

While speaking in Act V of William Shakespeare’s tragedy //Romeo and Juliet//, Juliet has just found out that Romeo is a Montague, her family’s sworn enemy. She is a Capulet and knows that the Montagues and Capulets have hated each other for centuries. Romeo and some of his friends crash a Capulet party where Romeo first sees Juliet. They both fall into an unconditional and forbidden love there. As soon as she realizes Romeo is one of her family’s greatest foes she starts worrying because her "only love" is "sprung from" her "only hate!/ early seen unknown, and known too late!.” Romeo is a Montague, her “only hate” and also her “only love.” “Too early seen unknown” refers to them falling in love before they realize they are sworn enemies and “known too late” because they are already and irreversibly in love. She comes to the conclusion that she “must love a loathed enemy” (I.v.136-139). Shakespeare has this line foreshadow that there will be a problem with their forbidden love. Loving your enemy and pursuing a forbidden love is also a very large theme from the play. Love and hate are oxymorons signifying confusion within Juliet’s heart.

__Assignment #4: Night Poem__
DARKNESS You used to cast down my Romeo. You hid him from the world. After Romeo's exile you, the darkness, took on a new front. You still hide him, but n ow not from the world but from hate-filled foes who would happily end his life, effectively ending my own. You let our love flourish under your cover. While others rejoice in the light we sit waiting on your return "'tis twenty years til then." (II.ii.171)
