Just wanted to put this out there, since I didn't think of it until after class. We all seemed fairly eager to blame the reader for his ignorance and poor reading skills, but what if it wasn't his fault? What if no one ever taught him how to be a good reader or showed him anything less literal about how to read a book? He certainly seemed to have an aversion to school, as evidenced in the first stanza. What if it was the education system who was at fault?
Just putting that out there.
