Superman in the Vein of Paradise Lost

One of my classes had a creative writing option where we could choose one author and adapt a portion of their work.  I figured writing about Superman like John Milton made perfect sense.  It's just an excerpt, so the story has no ending and it begins in medias res.  It has some formatting issues and I'm still not happy with some of the word choice, but it was still a really fun project to work on. I wrote this a few months after the HP oil spill and you can see how the conflict in the poem was inspired by my own feelings of helplessness.  I'm curious to see what you all think, and constructive criticism is always welcome.

College

Love is everywhere here,
under held doors and shared umbrellas,
Within every gaze and nudged shoulder.
But most especially
if not most perceptibly,
It's in the book that finds a new holder.

My Favorite Movies of 2011

Okay, we're almost two weeks into the new year and I think it's finally time to put up my little "best of" list.  This is based only on the movies I saw this past year.
