Jabberwocky*

When I first read the poem Jabberwocky, it just blew my mind. When we played the game as well as discuss it, I got a much better understanding. Jabberwocky was interesting to read. Like what tawny said, sense and nonsense work together hand in hand. If you read something that is nonsense, then you will not understand it. However if there is some sense with that nonsense you can find some understanding to it. In the poem, it was easier to make sense of what was being said when English words were incorporated. Without the use of some english words alongside the nonsensical words, the poem means nothing to me.
