i think poetry as all art is useful and important in a private way most of all, it's most useful in informing life choices but as for something more collective? one famous poet's quote was that not one single poem saved a single person from the gas chambers, and i agree but i wouldn't go as far as to take oscar wilde's tongue in cheek comment that all art is quite useless completely seriously, but to be honest i think in many ways a small part of that sentiment rings true

Hi Lisa
Hey, chill, Sis. You know the world is just perfect as it is. It doesn't need changing, and it doesn't need poetry; but, if it did, it would need yours.
The world just needs to... Bee.
Julian
