Poetry should be said by a confessor
On his way to be a professor
Unapproved by the priest
Banned by the government
Admired by the layman
Said by the masses
Chanted like a hymn
Sanctioned by ancestors, and failing them
Taken as a time.out out of them
Read by posterioty
Solicited by the publisher
Published by the public
Distributed by word of mouth.
