Who Is A Poet?
A poet is a sensitive soul with a heart of gold.
A poet is bold: grace under pressure and courage
Under fire. A poet tries to avoid trash talkers,
Tall talkers, habitual liars, bullies, snake-oil
Salespersons, and con artists who cross the line. A
Poet is often misunderstood and misjudged by the
Masses: thus, a poet is labelled as arrogant, short,
Egotistical, delusional, Americano, unconventional,
Rebellious and worse. That’s because a poet is blessed
And cursed with a fertile imagination which cannot
Be roped in. A poet finds mundane reality trivial
And boring and chooses instead to live on cloud nine.
Only a poet can dream about what is invisible to
The naked eye; a poet’s bridge touches the sky,
Linking earth to heaven. While the masses sleep,
The poet suddenly leaps to connect the dots: The poet
Has a sharp mind even if he seems confused and lost.
