People -

Who are real -

Who are themselves -

Their very own self.

We are all real

We are all ourselves

We dont move from a core

Most people feel that if you write poetry you must have personally experienced what you write - rubbish

I say read of one Poet who if he wrote all that happened to him, lost his legs in badajos breeches, had a sexton toll his knell and was writing a magazine in England at the time

We write to use our imagination, our brains, our thoughts on life and we enjoy that

Why do you think we have so many reporters keen on making the news rather than reporting it

Poetry is a lot of things to a lot of people

I agree with everything you've said.  I was actually responding to a post by "professor Gloom"  - he was wondering what cool is these days.  I don't think its cool to try to create an image.  I think its being the person who you are.

I agree with everything above but want to add that I think "cool" is what we make it!  Enjoyed.
