Semester and books

Not sure how to prepare for next semester yet. Funny, we have to select texts for the next semester, which always makes me feel like I actually have to have next semester completely planned as well. This next year seems as unpredicateable, neigh, more so, than, previous years. I'm thinking through what to teach in terms of the 305 I'm assigned. The real question will be whether I ask for two more classes, or none at all. Regardless, for the 305 I'm thinking about teaching a few more books I've always wanted to read/teach, or that I've taught before but would like to teach again, in a different context. Namely, I'm thinking about the Cantos; Dream Songs; and a few others. More importantly, I'm needing to write more. Writing more might also give me more opportunity in the future in terms of what classes I might get. Also, in addition to Cantos, I was thinking of a poem by Auden; a play or six by Yeats; and others, like Valery; maybe even Baudelaire. Not sure yet.
