Need Help!

thank you for the help everyone. I was thinking the same thing for the silver too. Everything thing loooses color( or colour as they call it outside the US) but everything is silver under the moon

This is merely a homework assignment.
Is the teacher trying to make it more exciting by dressing it up as a "poetry slam"?

I would go with the Shakespeare and Hobbes's explanation.
That should liven things up a bit.

You really feel it is so prosaic, as to be about the fact that the human eye has monochrome vision under certain conditions.

Oh well, go for that then. At least it's better than stealing the ideas / work of others and claiming them as your own. A step in the right direction methinks.

The subject matter of the poem is a little basic.

But as with many things, "it ain&#39;t what you say, it&#39;s the way that you say it".

What has modern education come to when a simple assignment is worth two test scores?
Do you also get credit for maintaining a pulse?

Does it have to be your own pulse.

That would be for the advanced placement students.

They are going on to pre-med.

All others proceed directly to "Would You Like Fries With That" 101 and thence, 102.
