Do you think that with today's Instant gratification society poetry ,the reading and understanding of it is dead?
how may people would use their minds to unlock the outrage of folly?
Or are we doomed to watching it on americas funniest video?
I wonder if the "charge of the Light brigade" would even be published today.
Thank you for you answers.

Shultzie, yesterday I posted three politically charged poems, expressing my views (albeit, rather poorly) and I must say, only a handful of the answerers 'got' them....either due to my inability to properly express, or the inability of others to want to dig deeper to see meaning...how will we ever know?

Great question.
