what is it about becoming an academic that makes you like bad poetry
#julia.txt#NUANCE : a generalization ofc#and VERY subjective To Me and what poetry i Like#i just like being dramatic#but for reals#i think that uni professors and academics are more likely to assign poems that are interesting because of Their Structure#rather than like. it Hits You. you know#way more likely to talk about oh isnt this structure clever see this reference here see this there#rather than. The Contents? if that makes sense#analyse de fond vs analyse de forme <- forgor the terms in english#AND IDK. my friend shows me the poems she gets assigned#and they all just feel. Empty to me. again very subjective but#sure the structure is interesting but is it Saying Anything. is it Actuslly anything beyond havimg this number of syllables in each third#line#idk man ❤️ peace and love on planet earth forever#more nuance: if you're learning about poetry in an academic setting it makes sense that theres emphasis on structure#and the self referential world surrounding poetry#but im sure theres poems that have those aspects without being bad ❤️ (to me. again)
