What is poetry?.

[Anonymous No.19888661]

Hello Youth. Can you answer, in an abstract and fully general manner, that question?. Is poetry about love and are poets liars?.

That false portrait captures the vibe of the homosexual dystheist heretic who hated God to death that Shakespeare gave in his works.

>Poetry is the language of the imagination and the passions.
>Poetry represents forms chiefly as they suggest other forms; feelings, as they suggest forms or other feelings. Poetry puts a spirit of life and motion into the universe. It describes the flowing, not the fixed. It does not define the limits of sense, or analyze the distinctions of the understanding, but signifies the excess of the imagination beyond the actual or ordinary impression of any object or feeling. The poetical impression of any object is that uneasy, exquisite sense of beauty or power that cannot be contained within itself; that is impatient of all limit; that (as flame bends to flame) strives to link itself to some other image of kindred beauty or grandeur ; to enshrine itself, as it were, in the highest forms of fancy, and to relieve the aching sense of pleasure by expressing it in the boldest manner...
>Poetry, according to Lord Bacon, for this reason,‘has something divine in it, because it raises the mind and hurries it into sublimity, by conforming the shows of things to the desires of the soul, instead of subjecting the soul to external things, as reason and history do.’
