They say that the essence of poetry is to write about whatever you want to write about and not worry whether or not you're writing with grammatical correctness or even spelling things right or anything else that high school teachers are always trying to get you to do right and the things that professors say need to be right and everything else like rhyming and metering and penning that need to be done right that blind the author from what he really needs to do to make good poetry like this poetry here that I just create from sitting down and beginning to write.
