Poetry Is...
Not Prose.
A story, with elements
it requires no time out in the elements.
The literary techniques used
are hard to detect,
they often leave one feeling dazed and confused.
Poetry is a means of expression
an author's outlet for confession.
For me, it isn't just another unit in English,
or *ugh* another timed commentary
but,
a miniature transportation device
that gives the ability to
slip
into another world.
