poetry...?

ugh. i do not get most poetry. i just don't "get" it. its really quite frustrating. especially when i have to read it for class and i'm supposed to understand what the hell they are talking about.

i think its cool that people write poetry, and they can get it published and that people (might) buy it. that's pretty awesome. but i still dont know what they are saying.

maybe i'm just not on the same level as the poetry. is that it? the poetry is deeper than i am, but i am not shallow. or maybe i am. i have no idea.

i enjoy accessible poetry because i understand it. and i like poetry that has pretty words and images. but my god there are times where i will read a poem and just be like, "okay" and move on and not be affected in the least.

my poor mind. it doesn't like it.

i'm done now. i wanted to post in gallimaufry because i haven't in a while and my lack (oooh i typed clack first, great word) of understandint poetry isn't extreme enough for aimee hates everything. the end.
