The purpose of poetry may be to create from immaterial
To deceive
To be unbearably honest and
undeniably cruel
To know
To understand
To attempt understanding and
maybe even empathy.
The purpose of poetry may be the art itself of
harnessing energy and chaotic self influemce.
The purpose of poetry may be to externalize insanity
or find/create the soul.
The purpose of poetry may be to realize the power
of our own subconscious
To find the potential energy in our words and use it
kinetically across our tongues.
The purpose of poetry may be to find god and to finally
find out what this was all about in the first place.
