By whom?
Shakespeare, Margaret Atwood, Sappho, my friends, T. S. Eliot when mad,
e. e. cummings when more mad, and people who get published in magazines that I would also like to be published in (hangs head in shame).
Have you acedemically read poetry?
Heck yes.
When, and did you enjoy it?
Every grade and every Language Arts / English / Reading class that I can remember. More in college. And yes.
Were you forced to memorize poetry in school?
Yes.
Did you memeorize poetry for your own amusement?

Yes.
Do you quote poetry often in normal conversation?
Yes, but I quote Buffy and random fantasy novels more.
If poetry were a skill in a roleplaying system, what level would you have in it? (system and level, please)
I do not know enough about roleplaying systems to answer this question properly. I am probably a level 4/5 high court elven bard somewhere, though.

Yes and yes.
Can you name four different forms of poetry?
Yes, I can.
Can you define an anapest?
