dislike of poetry

My dislike of Poetry I dislike poetry; it is a contrived form of expression, yet whenever I published one of my collections, which is under the rubric of poetry when they are nothing but opinions and descriptions of thoughts, which I try to share with readers who might like what I write or think this is a waste of time. I dislike poetry because it keeps life in shadows and tries not to tell but to show by writing so abstract you have to guess the intentions. When you do, the poet is great. mainly because he described life as scholastic and has little to do with real life, but you can, if seeking brief fame, put your head in The gas oven and everything you wrote will be holy as the poetic grail, a pity because the poet/writer was seduced by her father and was unable to come to terms with this because she liked the rape but didn’t dare to admit it.
