Hi Aristocles,

Before comdemning poetical writing as being illogical, first look at your own writing. As far as your opinion goes, some of the most intelligent and witty people in history have written and appreciated poetry, so you classify yourself as their direct opposite when declaring your lack of understanding. Literary education will not just help you appreciate poetry, but it will also improve your emotional intelligence, which what enables people to get along with each other.

I think poetry is the language of the heart. Poetry is very manifold and with it, it is possible to write down every kind of mood and feeling. The most poems are timeless and have a deep message. With the different variations of interpretations get everyone an own access to the poem. Poems are often drawn of the life and this worldly wisdom makes them important for others.
