What Is Poetry?

Maybe anything can be poetry?
Some say that…
I’m not so sure
Doesn’t feel quite right
Notes alone
Aren’t music
Paint
Without the brush
And a soft touch
Isn’t a painting
Talking
Isn’t
Singing
But
Can anything be poetry?
What is it that makes certain things art
And other things
Ingredients?
There is a difference
Between a meal
And the groceries
Some spice has to be added
Some seasoning
Something human
And then it transforms
Into a meal
Into
Art.
These words
Have the potential
To do something similar
I just need
The right sequence
The right spice’s
And
Something human.
