Reading Response 6

   I see writing as an art. Like art the rules are there in order to make clear what the piece is. Grammar is very important depending on what it is you are creating. Like a painting marking a point in history the writing should be accurate as it serves a purpose. The Constitution would be an example of a work that should be accurate and precise and in order to achieve this you need rules everyone can understand and a form which everyone should follow. Contrarily a poem with the purpose of depicting emotion or beauty could pass with little or no rules. Like an abstract painting invoking feeling there are no strict lines. This could be because in order to explain a thought or feeling that has no definition cannot possibly be described with defining words. The purpose of grammar is to support your fact not entirely to live by.
