The Poet World

Most people believe poets live in a fantasy world where reality does not exist. Yet others believe Poets expand the views we have about reality. There are poems that when we repeat reading them, have gradually made us think of areas which we have experience before. Poets transcribe their vision that makes us wonder and exposes possibilities of language.They transcribe their vision into poems. Poems force us to ask questions about how we view ourselves. They make us think again about how we live and paint pictures with words. Poets direct us to see what we are capable of accomplishing and that surely deepens the gift that makes us human. Poems let us know when we are manipulated by the powers that be. The descriptions given to us by poems allow us to see reality. Unlike Scientists who are cold-hearted dissectors of what is beautiful, poets are heirs to that which lies between our heads and our heart.
