I did not enjoy reading Whitman’s works in high school.

Now, Robert Service was a much better reading.

I voluntarily took an F because I refused the assigned rubbish of The Scarlet Letter. That was horrible crap to be teaching to high school kids.

Curious juxtaposition.
I’ve had a Whitman and a Service poem on my FR homepage for years :-)
