being an educator, i wonder every day why arts are being cut in schools all across the country.

what kind of world are we shaping for our kids without the emotional outlets of the arts?

ah well, my two cents.

The Arts are very important for all need a way to release
either it be by sports or writing it helps us see things
in a different light.

Bitter just slightly but then it is a way to realese the
feelings.bigsmile

bro, so true, that's why poetry in America sucks the mainstream pole of society in bookstores are filled with poetry books of only the famous and infamous. You poems, better than most I read at bookstores, wouldn't even make it on the shelf. I hope Europe is different, which part, I don't know.
