		Honestly, I went to a decent high school, and I can barely remember ever studying poetry.  It was the Iliad and the Odyssey and Shakespeare (great stuff), but that was it.  We didn't even read and study Whitman, "Leaves Of Grass", and I was in a true-blue-blooded American school.
So I can't honestly say I was turned off to poetry in school. For the most part, it didn't even exist to me.

You can't hate me more than I hate myself.  I win.
