        Used as a euphemism for Sex. Sexy sexy sex. Particularly between Arthur and Merlin. Term is used primarily as an excuse when others catch Merlin and Arthur in the act. Rarely works as everyone knows exactly what poetry Merlin is teaching Arthur.

          Good Poetry
          Indirectly stating what you mean or directly stating something that parallels what you really mean. Adding depth and making the reader use their wit through parallels in indirect examples allows for powerful connections and is characterized as poetic writing. Commonly created by patience in organization and witty connections.

          Cliche Poetry
          Often misused and abuse by depressed teen girls (see [self proclaimed genius]) as they vent a conversation of themselves talking to about or to something that they have relationship problems with. They address the thing they have emotional conflicts with as you, spoon feed their emotions, add some rhetorical questions, repetition, sometimes end rhyme, and call it a poem. (see [venting tool]) Common themes are, you don't know me, why are you so mean, definitions of; love, death, innocense, etc., you'll cry when I die, and you'll never understand me.

              A form of [art] that uses [language]. [Poet]s use the [beauty] of a language and its [word]s to create a feeling or convey a [message] to the [read]er, whether the wording is soft, sweet, sunny, and a lovely walk through a meadow... or clotted, ugly, grungy, and conjures up images of a [slum]. Just like [artists] use images and [color]s to create a [mood] or message, poets use words to do the same thing.
              Poetry has been around for over 5,00 years and it's still young, [vibrant], and growing. Poetry might even go further into the past, since most people memorized poetry and passed it on orally; 5,000-year-old poems from [Mesopotamia] could have already been old when they were written.
              The practice of memorizing poetery and passing it on by word of mouth is pretty much gone.
              Humans change, but maybe their nature doesn't change very much; [practical]ly everything that could be said through poetry has already been said, often many times, albeit in different ways. Poets must be [original] and avoid any [cliché] if they want to look competent.

                    An archaic form of literature, now dying off. Doggerel.

                    As practiced in modern times, poetry is a discredited means of (supposedly) communicating aesthetic thoughts or feelings in verbal form. Thousands, perhaps millions of person-hours, disc/server space, and trees are wasted to develop and store this tripe.

But don’t let her [shyness] and kind heart Fool you she can be very bitchy at times, when she gets mad it takes her some time to get over the situation.

                          A useless subject that is merely an [abstract art]. Forced upon kids, this [waste of time] teaches children how to [rhyme] words in a specific rhythm.
