After reading Lawrence Ferlinghetti's poem "Constantly Risking Absurdity," which explores the poet's daring craft, write about your most absurd personal experience. Describe a single, specific incident that felt ridiculously bold or foolish. Ensure your response is vivid, concise, and captures the essence of absurdity.

 Prompt: My most absurd experience I have would be the time I fell down the stairs of my school. I was very embarrassed that I got up and left very quickly. The reason I fell was because I wasn't looking and didn't see that there were still steps that I needed to get off. So I just stepped off and ended up falling 5 steps down. After I fell people started laughing which was the reason I left really fast as well. After that I always check when I am going down the stairs so I don't trip again. 

Summary: Today in class we read and annotated a poem by Lawrence Ferlinghetti. 

Reflection: Today in class I learned how to stretch the truth when needed.
