Prompt 11 A New Hometown
11. Write a poem showing a personal reaction--positive, negative, or in some way you can think of--to a city, any city anywhere.

A New Hometown

University of Southern Mississippi
William Carey College
Camp Shelby
An hour and a half from New Orleans
An hour and a half from the Gulf Coast
An hour and a half from Mobile
The “Hub City”
That’s Hattiesburg

50,000 people in town
100,000 in the metro area
And in the middle of them all
A two-year-old named Liam
That’s m’ reason for moving here
That’s m’ grandson
Are we having fun yet?
