better late then never
In class, we are talking about poetry. Myself, I never enjoyed it. It’s just really confusing to me and even in high school, when they were maybe eight lines, it still had me confused. I hate that you have to sit there and try to figure out what the author is trying to say, or when you’re just trying to figure out what it's even about. Like with "Ode on a Grecian Urn," I had no clue that it Keats was talking about an Urn, even though it's in the title.
Poetry is really pretty, with rhyming and how authors say what they truly feel, but even then the rhyming part is still confusing. Sometimes it could go a, b, c, d. Or sometimes it could be aa, bb, cc, dd and that’s only a few ways in how you could set up the rhyming scheme. Frankly, I think it’s way too much work for just one little thing, but some people don’t see it at work at all.
I’m sure if poetry came as easily to me as it does to some people, I wouldn’t be so hesitant to be learning about it. But since we are, I’m going to go ahead and already apologize for how awful anything I write will be, not that I will be dissing poetry because I won’t. But that anything I write if it’s about describing what the author is trying to say or trying to figure out what they’re talking about and things like that, will most likely be wrong and probably not understandable.
