Read the excerpt from "digging." between my finger and my thumb the squat pen rests; snug as a gun. under my window, a clean rasping sound when the spade sinks into gravelly ground: my father, digging. i look down till his straining rump among the flowerbeds bends low, comes up twenty years away stooping in rhythm through potato drills where he was digging. read the haiku by bashō. a crow has settled on a bare branch— autumn evening. how does the structure of these poems differ? “digging” is a one-stanza poem with many lines, while bashō's haiku has multiple stanzas with few lines. “digging” is a long poem with no sound devices, while bashō's haiku is a short poem with many sound devices. “digging” has many stanzas of equal length, while bashō's haiku has many stanzas of varying lengths. “digging” has multiple stanzas of varying length, while bashō's haiku has only one stanza of three lines.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
