00:00The more material your life will become, the less poetic it will remain.
00:04Because poetry is something delicate, fine, subtle.
00:08Instead, all that you want is the next great pair of shoes, the next mobile phone, the next car, the next girlfriend or boyfriend, the next mansion, the next tempting tourist destination.
00:21All these are not poetic.
00:22Nobody becomes a billionaire poet.
00:24And if all your life is just about billions of dollars, then why will you value poetry?
00:31Poetry is valued only by those who are aiming at something within.
00:36And if the world becomes a place where the within is just ignored, rejected, even humiliated, then you will find that poetry is dying.
