If you read, in order, the last word of each line in Terrance Hayes’s poem “The Golden Shovel [3],” you will discover that they are the words of Gwendolyn Brooks’s poem “We Real Cool [4],” the inspiration for Hayes’s poem. Select one or more lines from a poem you admire, and write your own “Golden Shovel” poem [5]. Use each word from the source text in its original order for the last word in each line of your new poem. When you are finished, the end-words of your poem should trace out the origin poem. Be sure to add a note crediting the poet whose line(s) you’ve used.
