laugh and say congratulations, she passed your test! aren't cheesy poems the
worst?! now, how does it really go... (get her to remember it with you) so -
is she a poetry fan, a knitpicker, or an english major with nothing better to
do?
the jaques prevert poems are good, but your french had better be decent to
pull'em off. the rest - if you're sarging college students, you'll shoot
yourself in the foot with these ones (with the possible exception of the
butchered frost poem, which, if you play it as a tongue in cheek joke thing,
could actually be made to work FOR you).
i use poetry in sarges. particularly when my target is a lit major or talks
about loving poetry or if it's otherwise pertinent. i usually engage them in a
game of 'what's your favorite line from a poem'. or - i've also used song
lyrics, for the less literarily inclined.
some of my favorite poets/poetry to use for this kind of purpose: the first
few lines of 'the love song of j alfred prufrock' (t.s. eliot). almost
anything by edna st vincent millay. snippets of 'annabell lee' (poe). ee
cummings.
