Poetry is the art which is technically within the grasp of everyone: a piece of paper and a pencil and one is ready.

However, poetry does not live solely in books or in school anthologies.
Happiness, for you we walk on a knife edge. To the eyes you are a flickering light, to the feet, thin ice that cracks and so may no one touch you who loves you.
