Where Can I Get Strap On Rollerblades

Poetry is still alive? Living

These days, I had the chance, participating in a contest, to hear what you say around the poem. First, it is more alive than ever and is in excellent health.

Poetry today does not receive the deserved attention, but excluding any contests or publications around do not talk as if it were to be avoided. Critics complain of his vast production, mean that the quantity is not synonymous with quality and, as he hosanna its fertility, then, every poet has to deal with the publishers.

between a novel and an anthology of poems, the editor focuses on the novel, which covers a wide range of clients who do not want to rack your brain to find the key to reading a poem, or do not like the direct language, but wants to sink in a speech by the time and more relaxed pace. The poem, moreover, leads to reflection, to ask themselves a question, to challenge them and not everyone is willing to do so.
In our country, poetry has always been, our rich and varied literary form, an 'expression in that time has won the heart of sensitive men. Every man is a poet and put lines on paper is a way to be heard. San Francisco also made use of a simple and effective poetry to express praise to God while Dante I experimented with ways of rare beauty.

If we know the mentality and life lived in every century, we owe it to the poetry that embodies the spirituality of his time. To want to rule out the poetry, prose and for the sake of carrying out only what the public demands, it would be a serious mistake, depriving us of a world that is longing to reveal itself. The public should also be educated and informed ways to listen to great content, if only it were put in a position to understand.

I heard during my participation in the contest, poetry of great depth and humanity, with topics that would not have had otherwise treated the same effect. The value of

poetry is to use direct language, of being able to penetrate the soul scratching ways of seeing and thinking, and leaving in its wake scattered in the hearts of those who read it better than any prose.

The poem does not have a logical thread and looks like a mesh inner, a dense network of emotions through a language that comes out fast and quick effect. It 'an unfolding of ideas and nuances, of pure thoughts that sail in our inner sphere, is a universal code reader. The poet lives more than anyone else's time, it receives its transformations and its ill-feeling and it is measured. Banish the thought that poetry is a stupid infarcitura technique and rhetoric, making it a cliché, thinking that everything has already been said, it is at the discretion of the chosen few, or only at the mercy of those who are planning to hold power in this, deprives us of a basic tool: to be children of our time.

Who can silence the voice of the poet, the soul of humanity?
