I don't agree with your poem not being a literary work...
Who can be so boorish to decry another's creative expression...

applied to teaching literature, but I am hugely in favor of teaching lit. in
english classes. My sadness stems from two sources: one, that someone dared
say to you that your poem was not poetry, and the other, a symptom of HOTS
fever, that there is a belief that there is one way of appreciating and
teaching poetry/lit., and that you're doing it wrong.

Kaye College in Beer Sheva.
