How do you feel about poetry?

I'm not a huge fan of it myself. If I see something that looks like poetry, my brain shuts down.  tongue

Do you like poetry? Do you like to read it or write it? Any poem you particularly like or dislike?

In English, we're studying a poem called "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" by TS Eliot. It's odd. I'm not entirely sure what it means, so don't ask.  tongue

Re: How do you feel about poetry?

I love reading poetry.
Even if it's basically prose written in /n.
I also love writing poetry.
Except if I have to write prose written in /n.

No really, my fingers work tirelessly, to convert my thoughts to words in my sub-conciousness, and they really don't know how to spell wierd. I have to type really slowly to get it right... like this.

weird.

You should drum it into your brain then because that is a serious problem to have and you should get that checked out!
