I dated a girl with shit taste and it was a pain in the arse. When we listened to music together I would always have to suffer through one of her shit songs for each one of mine and we couldn't even watch films together because her favourites drove me insane and my favourites put her to sleep. And it's a huge turn-off when you show a girl a beautiful poem and her eyes just glaze over. Forget ever going to the theatre or art galleries together, or doing anything at all on holiday except sitting a fucking beach. Since that time I have come to the conclusion that plebs are subhuman.

Make it something that is patrician and that she is still going to like because of the theme. Werther, BNW and Dorian Gray sometimes work, or romantic poetry since they're not too hard to get into.

Condition her into liking one particular author for personal reasons, then start chatting about what makes them be considered great and the aspects that constitute literary merit.

Make a patrician out of her instead of simply looking at her with scorn.

It's not about liking what I like; I've dated other girls whose tastes were vastly different to mine, but I could respect that they had arrived at those tastes through independently exploring and engaging with art, and in that case I am even willing to potentially incorporate aspects of their taste into my own (as long as it's mutual).

On the other hand, people who are utterly indifferent to art are subhuman and impossible to relate to for anyone with a modicum of self-awareness and intellectual curiosity. Being stuck in a relationship with a non-reader will suck the life out of a reader.

You've never read him.

What happened here is: you saw a poem about self-acceptance, written with a vulnerable tone, and decided to hate it because in your minds it's always time for a woman to shut up.

You do realize that anyone familiar with o'hara knows that he [o'hara] viewed some of his poems as trite after writing them. Most o'hara scholars -- if you're not familiar with them -- all agree that there are some really bad o'hara poems that probably shouldn't even be published.
