Walt Whitman

Recommended Posts

Walt Whitman hated poetryin the Romantic form.He hated it when writerspressed themselves into the norm.He hated it when authorswrote poetry constrainedby rhythm, rhyme and lyric meter?it limped like it was lame.Walt Whitman hated poetry,but not with fullest measure -for I hate poetry more than heand with evil pleasure.It's asinine and saccharine;it's never worth re-reading.I hate poetry so muchit sometimes leaves me bleeding.The point is hidden deep within -you dig for inspiration.Though sometimes hoursexcavating will have no revelation.Words like ?love? and ?sympathy?are thrown around like candyuntil they sound lo longer deepand merely sound quite campy.I hate poetry because ofwhat it tries to be.Walt Whitman hated poetry,but not as much as me.
