i beg to differ. poets dont make sense, poets create the field of juxtaposition that sense needs in order to function as a line of operations.

Oh indeed Beth – so very true and well said. Just reading this, I thought about stem cell research and the moral and ethical implications – and the poets must decide what future we want. Do we want to grow live human bodies without brains and use them for parts? Are the life forms we create automatically entitled to all the rights of naturally created life forms? If an individual creates a life form dos he/she own it? Can life be owned? Can the DNA for life be owned?
Anyway, all that to say I agree 100% Beth. 😀

That’s for sure. With all dues respect to the builders, oh that we had more real poets and not just those who think they are poets, and more real builders and not just those who think they are builders.

We need them both. We need people in all sorts of occupations. Poets often have lofty opinions about their importance. It kinda goes with the territory.
