Don't Muffle The Messenger - The Poet Poem by Colette Dright

Poetry is the freedom of expression and should not be limited by anything, especially by characters.

Poetry is expressed through feelings, emotions and or experiences and can also be expressed from sound, vision or thoughts. There should not be a limitation on poetry. Being able to express yourself to the fullest does not always have to make cents ¢¢¢. But it does make sense to the poet to use however many necessary wordings needed to get the message across. A poet should not have to feel the need to "say less" nor should they have to shorten or limit their gift of writing.

Poetry is stepping into the mind of the poet; however, it may not reach every reader the same, meaning, the same poem is read by two people, but both have different perspectives of what they believe the poet is saying. Poetry is not debatable, to the readers it may be, but to the poet it is not, because at the end of the day, the poet said what they said.
