  1. it sure is, but then, every one is wrong every once in a while...might as well give it a try and be wrong, then just never try it at all. That's how people don't succeed. Ever heard of the saying, "If at first you don,t succeed, try try try again"?

    Ah, give up Peter, I got that one.
  2. No, literary interpretation is not a degrading activity, but being wrong can be.

    I'm glad that I gave you the false impression that you had won something. A few more like that and I may win something.
  3. Aw, poor peter...why are you degrading yourself? You always give good interpretation in literature.

    oh, nothing. I was just wondering why you let me win that round...
  4. I had an interpretation for te poem, but I was not as confident as I like to be in interpretating literature.

    So what would you like me to have said about emotional colors?
  5. I see you have no remark on the emotional colour?
  6. let's just say the poet did their job.

    I was talking about imagining the meaning of the poem. no twisting my words! And if you cannot get a meaning, then it's you who has no imagination.
  7. Clear enough for what?

    I am sorry to learn that you are not imagining anything. If I didn't imagine anything, then I would be sure that I was dead.
  8. If you can come up with an interpretation of the peom, then it's clear enough.
  9. huh? I'm not imagining! And of course! if everyone had the same interpretation, that means the poet was simple mided, and from what I've learned, the simple minded poets aren't the ones that are remembered.
  10. I think that you meant that you have a clear understanding of what you imagine the meaning of that poem to be, but others may have different interpretations.
