Writing Poetry

[smooth_poison]

I have an academic question now:

Why does poetry matter?

Please offer some insight into how you view poetry :D 
I have a 2000 word essay due at the end of this month and I have to present a synopsis of my essay in class either this week or next week.

Well I guess I should go work on homework now.

OK... well

Back when ppl couldn't or didnt know how to write they had to remember all their stories. And as it is easier to remember a story if it is in rhyme they did that and it turned into poetry and ppl kept creating like that and now it is an integra part of history!!!
