Poetry is the Art


Poetry is the art of the blind, the poor, the shy, the odd, the method of expression for those who cannot, and will not speak to express themselves. It trumps a novel, for it does the same, in less time. Love, heartache, pain, tears, everything covered in less than a page. Belief, life, hate, anger, emotions welling up, to be released by the ink of a pen. Frustration, emotion itself, the soul of the individual, spilled out, and burst onto paper. No other way can do, only poetry.
