I don't know this poem, the author and any of the other supposedly "best-known modern poems and their authors". Yet I can sing a few of the Vinicius de Moraes

  Yeah, though I recognize the sayings through 'pop culture' obviously. As it goes "all generalizations are bad!". But I'm under the impressions that they meant this is a poem known to all _American_ readers which could be possible if it is required high school material. Personally I'd have expected 'The Raven' by Poe to be more well known, but that might just be my bubble. :)
