[ross hamilton hill]

I love all poetry, find it in all sorts of places, found a book of Masefield's collected works in a pub a week ago and read some of his sonnets while waiting for my friends to arrive. I love the poetry on YouTube, I love the poetry in everyday conversation, I love slang and the poetry of storytelling and jokes, I like the poetry in ads and notices, in TV shows and movies, songs and liturgy, chants and prayers. I love the poetry of toddlers and babies, teenagers and criminals.
I like all forms of poetry and can't understand why anyone would limit themselves, it seems absurd to me, like not experiencing all the cuisines of the world or all the music, so with poetry, metrical, free verse, modern, old, what's the difference? as long as it's good.
