A judge’s decision to read a 111-yr-old poem in court before curbing federal agents’ #UseOfForce in #Chicago has brought fresh relevance to an iconic piece of local #literature.
In a ruling addressing actions by federal #immigration agents, US District Judge #SaraEllis last week recited #CarlSandburg’s 1914 composition “Chicago,” known for praising the town’s working-class roots & coining the “City of the Big Shoulders” moniker.

In my latest blog post you can read Carl Sandburg’s Halloween-themed poem “Theme in Yellow,” and do a simple vocabulary exercise.
It's a playful, festive, and wonderfully evocative poem - unusually written from the perspective of a pumpkin! If you love this time of year as much as I do, I’m sure you’ll enjoy “Theme in Yellow!”
