1. Found Poem
Daisy and Jordan lay upon an enormous couch,
Like silver idols,
Weighing down their own white dresses,
Against the singing breeze of the fans,
Gatsby literally glowed,
Without a word or a gesture
Oh, hello, old sport,
As if he hadn’t seen me for years.
It’s stopped raining.’
Has it?
When he realized
He smiled… like an ecstatic patron of recurrent light,
And repeated the news to Daisy,
It’s stopped raining.’
I’m glad,
And as I sat there brooding on the old, unknown world, I thought of Gatsby’s wonder when he first picked out the green light at the end of Daisy’s dock. He had come a long way to this blue lawn and his dream must have seemed so close that he could hardly fail to grasp it. He did not know that it was already behind him, somewhere back in that vast obscurity beyond the city, where the dark fields of the republic rolled on under the night.
Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that’s no matter—tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther.... And one fine morning——
So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
Nick: What do you think of your future life with Daisy, Jay?
Gatsby: Oh, I think we gonna leave here and have our marriage travel. Then goes to a beautiful island and have our marriage. I am sure that the marriage will be grand and fabulous. I will invite all my friends go there to celebrate it! I believe that will be the best memory in my life time. And after that I think we will buy a big house in a metropolis. I like Los Angeles. Or we can back to Chicago, there are some Daisy's friends over there. I can talk with Daisy later about this.
Nick: That's so coooooool man!! So when do you gonna leave?
Gatsby: I think we will leave here as soon as possible, I don't want to see Tom's face anymore. What about you my brother? Anything planed so far?
Nick: emmmm... I think I will stay here and keep doing my work.
Gatsby: Interesting. But why don't you go with me. I have some awesome work that can fit you. You won't be really tired but good salary.
Nick: It's sound great. I can't decide it yet.
Gatsby: Just tell me whenever you want to, my brother. How about go and have a tea inside?
Nick: Sweet!
