    poetry should challenge

    poetry should challenge other minds
    to see what isn't yet seen
    what isn't yet thought
    in the context of its presentation

    you should grasp the language
    by the balls
    and eviserate the minds which want to feel good
    for doing nothing

    for being

    poetry should make you think deeper
    than Opra might provoke
    poetry should provoke
    not placate
    not rehash
    the same old stash
    of purile concepts

    Is your poetry just regurgatated
    purile piss?
    something i should dismiss
    are you offended?
    should i care?

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
