The new poetry will not just comment, luxuriate or complain. It will have thought through the problems of existence, and will play the whole 88 keys, from the most lofty to the most basic practical & moral dilemmas. It will relate & integrate them all in a new light.

It will not flatter your vanity or soothe your nerves or feed you candy or agree with your notions or pretend to be what it's not. It will offer a form of reality for your interpretation. Its inherent truth will challenge, encourage, inspire, delight & rebuke. It will give you new ideas as it interprets the world.
