Poetry is an art form that was invented for the people and was originally by the people. Academics, and cultural pedants, can keep poetry classics from previous centuries on their dusty book shelves for as long as they want. The truth is that a glorious oral cultural tradition, such as poetry, does not belong in a University , or College, or academic journal.

Poetry belongs on the street where it was invented. For every academic spouting prose about the in depth meaning of some  classic poem wording, written maybe 300 years ago, there is a  little rhyme being formed on the pavement during a walk to work.

So long as poets such as Pam Ayres keep this oral tradition alive poetry will continue as a cultural norm. I developed an interest in publishing some of my poetry having been introduced to allpoetry.com. May  people such as Kevin, the owner of Allpoetry.com, continue the good work of websites such as this for as long as can be.

It is all about keeping culture and art where they belong. Where they belong is on the street and with the people.
