Poetry signifies

Poetry signifies moving back a step or two from our normal, rational, analytical world. Poetry signifies a larger, longer, wider, more profound view. Poetry signifies slowing the mind to think more. Poetry signifies attention. Poetry signifies taking in, assimilating, being washed over, becoming porous to what surrounds, what touches. Poetry signifies giving without intention to get. Poetry signifies work, sweat, danger, a cutting open oneself to find what is really in those guts, and displaying it for one to see, maybe for many to see.
