"IF I TOLD HIM" A Completed Portrait of Picasso

The poem “lf I Told Him” A complete portrait of Picasso by Gertrude Stein was a very interesting poem to read. The poem was a bite confusing at first because the words were rapidly repeated in a wired order format. However I thought this were a nice poem and a good way to describe Picasso, especially from someone close to him as Gertrude Stein. I really liked how Stein incorporated music in her background as she reads her poem; this reminded me of a poetry slam. After reading the poem and finding out that she wrote the poem in this way was because Picasso was a person that spoke in incomplete sentences and not making sense. The poem was well said and put together very good, I enjoyed trying to read it and make sense of what Gertrude Stein was trying to say.
