In our previous discussion, we discussed fun poetry and its forms like riddles,
limericks, and haikus, each offering a creative and engaging way to explore language.
Riddles are poems that describe something without directly naming it, challenging the
reader to figure out the object or idea being described. Limericks are short, humorous
poems with a specific rhyme scheme (AABBA), often telling a witty or absurd story
in five lines. Haikus are concise, unrhymed poems with a 5-7-5 syllable pattern,
Review traditionally focusing on nature and moments of reflection. These types of poetry
encourage imagination, critical thinking, and enjoyment, making them great tools for
both teaching and learning poetry in a fun and interactive way.

Home by Warsan Shire (British-Somali poet)

No one leaves home unless

Home is the mouth of a shark.

You only run for the border

When you see the whole city

Running as well.

Your neighbors running faster

Than you, the boy you went to school with

Who kissed you dizzy behind

The old tin factory is

Holding a gun bigger than his body,

You only leave home

When home won’t let you stay.

No one would leave home unless home

Chased you, fire under feet,

Hot blood in your belly.

It’s not something you ever thought about

Doing, and so when you did –

You carried the anthem under your breath,

Each mouthful of paper making it clear that

“The Hill We Climb” - Amanda Gorman

When the day comes we ask ourselves, where can we find light in this never-ending
shade? The loss we carry; a sea we must wade. We’ve braved the belly of the beast,
we’ve learned that quiet isn’t always peace and the norms and notions of what just
is, aren’t always justice. And yet the dawn is ours before we knew it. Somehow we do
it, and somehow we’ve weathered and witnessed a nation that isn’t broken but
simply unfinished. We, the successors of a country and a time where a skinny black
girl descended from slaves and raised by a single mother can dream of becoming
president only to find herself reciting for one. And, yes, we are far from polished, far
from pristine, but that doesn’t mean we are striving to form a perfect union, we are
 Page 7 of 13

striving to forge a union with purpose, to compose a country committed to all

cultures, colors, characters, and conditions of man. So we lift our gazes not to what
stands between us, but to what stands before us. We close the divide because we
know to put our future first, we must put our differences aside. We lay down our
arms so we can reach out to one another, we seek harm to none and harmony for all.

APPENDICES

I. DISCUSSION

The relationship between text and context in 21st-century literature is essential in understanding the deeper
meanings of literary works. Text refers to the written or spoken material itself, while context is the background
or situation in which a text is created or read. This includes historical, social, cultural, and personal influences.

Text in literature refers to the actual written or spoken material that forms the literary work. It includes the
words, sentences, structure, themes, characters, and literary techniques used by the author to convey meaning.

Context, on the other hand, refers to the circumstances or background that influence the creation and
interpretation of a text. It encompasses a variety of factors,

Importance of Context
In the 21st century, literature reflects a rapidly changing world influenced by technology, globalization,
social movements, and environmental concerns. Writers often embed their works with themes and ideas that
resonate with contemporary issues. Understanding the context of a literary work allows readers to grasp its
relevance, purpose, and message.

Key Aspects of Context in 21st-Century Literature

1. Cultural Context: refers to the societal norms, traditions, values, and experiences that shape and are
reflected in a literary work. In the 21st century, literature often serves as a platform to explore complex themes
such as identity, race, ethnicity, and the struggles of marginalized communities. Authors like Chimamanda
 Page 10 of 13

Ngozi Adichie (Americanah) and Jhumpa Lahiri (The Namesake) provide profound insights into immigrant
experiences, generational conflicts, and the challenges of navigating multiple cultural identities.

2. Historical context involves the period and events surrounding the creation of a literary work, including wars,
pandemics, revolutions, and political movements. In the 21st century, literature often serves as a response to or
reflection on significant historical events. For example, post-9/11 literature delves into themes of fear, cultural
tension, and the erosion of privacy, as seen in Mohsin Hamid's The Reluctant Fundamentalist. Understanding
historical context allows readers to appreciate how authors capture the essence of their times and provide
insights into the human condition.

3. Technological Context: The rapid advancements in technology have transformed how stories are told and
consumed in the digital age. Literary works like Ernest Cline's Ready Player One explore virtual reality, gaming
culture, and the intersection of human relationships with technology. Authors also address themes of artificial
intelligence, surveillance, and digital dependency, reflecting society's evolving relationship with technology. By
considering technological context, readers can better understand how innovations shape both the form and
content of modern literature.

4. Social Context: Social context encompasses the societal issues, movements, and changes that influence
literary works. In the 21st century, literature often critiques and reflects topics such as climate change,
feminism, LGBTQ+ rights, racial justice, and mental health awareness. Works like Margaret Atwood's The
Testaments and Angie Thomas's The Hate U Give examine the complexities of social inequality, resistance, and
activism. By addressing these pressing issues, contemporary literature not only mirrors societal concerns but
also encourages readers to engage critically with the world around them.

Interplay Between Text and Context

The interplay between text and context creates a richer reading experience. Writers use their context as
inspiration, while readers interpret texts based on their own cultural and personal perspectives. This dynamic
relationship enhances the meaning of a literary work and fosters empathy and understanding.
