most people know how to write and they do it with fair frequency. our writing is the culmination of the influence of every other writer, including the greats and the laymen.

we learn to paint by copying painters. we learn to sculpt by copying sculptors. we learn to write by copying writers.

a painter retains some of the rigorous rules impressed upon him by the people he copied and so does the sculptor and so does the writer. then, they break some rules, or alter them, and attain their own style.

we do exactly what you're suggesting we do, we just do it in a way that is less retarded than copying poe poems.
