I know your name, but I'm all about format :)
I seam to have struck a nerve. Yes I agree her poems are all sad... very very sad. I didn't say I dislike Whitman, but reading Emily's poems... that emotion of sadness is so strong. Its seeps through the white space on the page. And I think thats what poetry is about, conveying emotion through ink on paper.
Then again, judging poetry is by no means objective. Dead Poets Society comes to mind...
O Captain My Captain!
That said, they are both great poets. I did not mean to offend. Although I am flattered to have a post in my honor hehe.
Oh and my name, is Robert. OT KG refers to a group of people, 68 refers to me among them. So "68" would identify me, but OT KG could be 100 people. FYI. And I agree, pizazz was indeed the wrong word for her, and very correct for Whitman. It was early... I'm not very smart... what can I do?
More importantly, Dr. Seuss is a genius. Or an Acid-Fiend. Or Both.
Oh and 10 points if you can tell me what this song is from. 15 if you can name another song from the same album.

hahaha you certainly didn't strike a nerve. If I've learned anything about poetry, it's opinion and controversy. There are poems about living and dying at the same time, it just depends on how you read it.
I too am honored to have a post written in my regards, so thanks :)
What song are you talking about?
You didn't post lyrics or anything
