Shame, though, it contributes to people disliking/not caring for poetry :[ I think part of it is the "teenager being forced to learn things they may not care too much about/fuck the man" attitude. I love reading, but I never read books for school. I just wanted to be entertained instead of being grilled on why the curtains were blue (spoiler - they're just fucking blue curtains, not the sorrow of man draped to cover the evils of outside influence). But you provided me a TIL, and I really like poetry when it's done well. | ||

I am generally in agreement with that popular statement (the curtains were fucking blue), but I think it's dangerous to assume that everything that isn't immediately obvious is meaningless, which happens often. in addition, that sentiment comes from teenagers' discontent with being forced to read literature in school, even though they are usually being forced to read solid classics where it's more likely than not that there -is- meaning in seemingly trivial minute details.
