I think poetery is repulsive!
You’re not attracted to it ,then?
I just find that to be so ... well, so poetic.

Aarg, the futile make of pottery,
the devil’s wile, his poetry,
my callous hands cannot take,
the gob and his foolish poetery.
My wife found an envelope of my high-school ramblings and “poetry”. She asked why I never wrote her a love letter with a poem in it.
The next morning I left her a note:
“Rose’s are red,
daisies are yellow,
I love you more,
than mixed-fruit Jello.”
She hasn’t asked for any more poetry.
Just as everything else in life, there is GOOD poetry and there is repulsive poetry.
Frost is one of the good guys.
I used to read Edgar Allen Poe to my child.
Loved the Raven and the Bells.
But much of poetry is for the committed to it. Not very interesting.
