    I understand that if you have to explain it, it loses something, but I just don’t understand it. . .HELP!

      I admit the poem *is* a bit oblique. Its meaningfulness really depends on whether you have trouble memorizing things (which I know personally that you do *not*!- )

      If you did, though, I think my poem would’ve brought to mind the schoolboy horror of having to recite — “name all the . . .” — presidents or state capitals or countries of the world or species of insects or…well, you get the idea. A nightmare indeed! (For some of us.) LOL!
