Drawing Out The Poet Within
(John Cuno)
This is actually only an article that I find very interesting. I've read and comprehended over this essay. And, I could conclude that the simplest message that this essay wants the readers to know is that each person has a poetic side. Everyone is a poet, just as everyone is a person. Poetic, not in the sense that we write poems, but because of how we look at life and how we're thinking and living. The essay states that our challenge as poets is "to take the ordinary in our life and make it into something extraordinary; take that which is pedestrian and give it wings." To express the majesty, wonder, and wisdom that are hidden so deeply in us, it takes getting rid of whatever stifles the poet in us - a renunciation of all that is small-minded, second-best, soulless, and artificial.
Therefore, let us believe and live with the saying, "There is in every person something more than what meets the eye." And always remember: "You are a poet though you might not know it. But that's the beauty of being a person, you'll know yourself better as life goes on."
