We probably had to dissect poems back when I was at school (Swedish poems of course) but I have no memories of it at all. I think most of our lit studies were concentrated on prose. I think that's why I can enjoy poetry, both Swedish and English, much more than I can "literary" fiction. I've never really been a fan of Shakespeare's though, he just doesn't "speak" to me in a way that other poets do. This one is just different enough from his usual sonnets maybe.
