A life is not sufficiently elevated for poetry unless of course the life has been made into an art.
A great many people seem to think writing poetry is worthwhile even though...
I write poetry in order to live more fully.
True there has been more talk of peace since 1945 than I should think at any other time in history. At least we hear more and read more about it because man's words for good or ill can now so easily reach the millions.
