Writing is an Art II: Poems

It may be ironic that I do not like to read poems. To a certain extent, I do not even like to read my own poems, but for different reasons. Poems, like any form of literature, has a wide variety of styles. Because I do not like to read poems, it is almost like saying I do not like sculpture, a major category of art.

Writing is an Art

To say that writing is an art form requires the reader to know what art is and the history of art, or at the very least, what the different styles of art represent.

Art has been assaulted by many to confine it into certain types or criteria while many have spent their lives liberating it from any such rules. Many in the past have experimented with colors, lines, shapes, and breaking art down to its most base form. In the end, anything can be called art, but it is up the individual viewer to classify it as good or bad art.
