Poetry and its accomplishments
The echo of applause is not the destiny of poetry.
Neither the poet's autograph on palm,
nor thousands of followers on Instagram.
All this can be the achievement of poet, not at all of poetry.
The real appreciation of poetry can be achieved in the form of .....
A long silence ...
A strand of dew in someone's eyes...
A wordless Ahh!
Bite of memory on any old wound....
Or in that hug by an stranger and her departure without any mention of name ,,,,,,
Poetry is the treatment of deep injuries of the Earth...
Poetry is also the favor of language, on her lovers.
