Poets Lane

Exclusive wise men merely elect the poetry road. On a mysterious slate, visionaries upload. They scarcely observe chalk fixed to class desks. His odd name is etched with crucial specks.

Exceptionally thought provoking, Lasaad. To me the wise (traditional) men follow simple conforming norms of poetry. The child-poet, the visionary (often unobserved) uploads his work on a new screen. It's the non conformist poet, oddly named, who will leave the "crucial specks" - his verses in a fresh medium. But I may be totally off base. So much to ponder here. I return to this piece again + again. Best wishes, Brian
