Poetry is another language to carry the psyche through the various dimensions of dark and light. It is an abstract built-in mechanism for most poets/musicians whether they write limericks, long tomes, or lyrics, to cope with living and the measures of existing, life and death, love, loss, to understand, to make sense, to find answers, to "feel".

I believe, that as writers (want to be, whatever!) we are naturally fond of words and form. But, in final analysis, it is truth, honesty of spirit, and loving intention to share and help further define evolving self in relationship to greater humanity and creation as a whole, that determines the value or fate of any write. Abstract art a perfect example.

Abstracts are never absolute

Feeling is abstract but expression must be always concrete. So, "I feel you" gives very bad connotation. You have no right to express your such feelings if it is not possible to shape it anyway.

Success is materialistic comfort, satisfaction is abstract comfort. The choice between the two is called life.

Poetry finds balances between both abstract freedom and concrete strictness. By this I mean, poetry displays its unique art by creating a visual work of art within the reader's mind while simultaneously creating music within the same reader via the poem's strict control of language.
