converting to poetry

ok..I just finished reading 2 hours of a chapter from my medical anthropology class and holy crapola.. all I could think about was how I could turn this factual yet boring shit into a poem so I could remember it when final time comes. some of it is interesting, but the majority of it is babbling on about same thing over and over and wow sleepy time. it would be wonderful if these textbooks could tweek it up a bit and actually make it readable without yawning every ten minutes. maybe I will contact the dead, such as Edgar Allen Poe to rewrite some of these texts.. how wonderful would that be..
