Obviously not for you as a writer, but ability is helpful to give some joy to the reader too.

America is such a dumb country. It didn't have to be this way. Well, maybe it did.

All the real poets are probably in hiding or invisible to us. Not these new york posers. Fuck these guys man. Shit I wish we could all just share cool interesting stories on some internet hub, and we could all be friends with each other and there would be different people who would have distinctive interesting styles and it would all be fun. But no, instead we need to live in this place where no one reads, no one understands, no one writes, and nothing ever happens. So the whole world is about 40-50 percent dimmer, darker, and stupider than it would've been otherwise. All because... what? It's an unanswerable question. Look, having culture isn't the number one thing in life. God knows you can have culture and be a piece of shit, or not have culture and be a good person. But it's a pleasant fucking garnish to this existence. I'm just sick of living in rome 2.0.
