Poetry is much like unto photography. The desire and end goal is the same-- to capture the power of emotion and beauty of vision into one pivotal snapshot, to say much with little, to use a moment to relate to a lifetime... Out of a hundred clicks of the camera, only one photo worthy of note might be produced. The same is true with poetry. The poet continually pumps out poem after poem with hopes that one, just one, will rise above the mediocrity of the ninety-nine others.
I have now missed lunch due to poetic attempts. Dang.
