Is there an option for "I'd check it out, then exclaim 'THAT'S NOT POETRY!' and get all upset and start up one of my rants on how with a few notable exceptions no decent poetry has been written since the end of the 19th century and how the average so-called poet today wouldn't know poetry if it dressed up in bright orange and smacked him on the head with a steel pipe"? Because if so...that's my choice.If not...sure...sounds nifty.

I think the correct answer for that would be "Yes, I'll participate." The secret hidden text between the lines reads: "I'll probably whine about this not being real poetry, but I'll enjoy the class anyway."
