I am seated in an institution of learning I am seated in an institution of learning for the purpose of divining that which I may of prose. As you may ascertain, I remained aloof saying "These verses which do not adhere to propper gramatic form Are incapable of communicating to me in a deep, meaningful way The emotions of a writer with whom I have never parlayed." But Lo! In a completely unexpected development, Whilst meandering through the book as the result of an assignment I espied a poem which I actually enjoyed reading, For it did not share in the qualities of other poems! However, we undertook a discussion of the poem in question in class: This mere process transformed what I had liked about the poem into something not deserving of my admiration anymore. In the manner of a cooked piece of meat, the poem is devoid of life No longer do I hear its plaintive message The process of conventional analysis has hidden The qualities which caused my enjoyment of the poem. This poem contains no metaphoric comparisons or lyrical beauty Its rhyme pattern unconventional and illogical. Does this really matter? You should simply enjoy it for what it is! You might actually find that you appreciate the message it conveys.
