The BEST Answer
Why make me read?
Why make me analyze?
Ask for my interpretation,
Yet you tear it to shreds.
"The author meant this!"
"The symbolism is this!"
Do you not know, teacher?
Can you not see?
The author is dead,
So interpretation must be free.
Do not ask for analysis.
Do not ask for thoughts.
When you believe in concrete answers.
Your degree, masters or doctorate,
Does not make you right.
It just makes you objective,
And destroys young confidence.
