Not really sure what made me think of this. When i was a senior in high school, in my english class, we had to find a poem one day and bring it in. i had completely forgotten until the mornming of, plus, i dont care for poetry, so i dont own any books.
However, fate was on my side. I jhad just bought the Nosferatu and malkavian books for Vampire: the Masquerade, and as luck would have it, they have poems and song excerpts at the beginning of each chapter. i searched for one that didnt make my skin crawl, and that was the one i picked to read in class.
It was an Exceprt from TS Elliot's "Tghe love song of J Alfred Prufrock". My teacher loved me anyway. That year was the year i really came out as a creative writer, and she loved enthusiastic, talented students (pats self on back)
As it turned out, that was her favorite poem in the world. Needless to say, i got an A :)
Anyone else have some clever little anectdotes liek this?
