With that attitude, neither are you.
Great poems stretch back to the beginning of recorded time. Most songs are poems.
Many remember the poem by Maya Angelou at the Clinton inauguration.
"The Star Spangled Banner" is a "poem".
"You, created only a little lower than
The angels, have crouched too long in
The bruising darkness,
Have lain too long
Face down in ignorance."
"The Rock cries out today, you may stand on me,
But do not hide your face."
