A verbal art like poetry is reflective; it stops to think. Music is immediate, it goes on to become.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Poetry is a vocal art for me - but not necessarily a performative one. It might be reading to oneself or recalling some lines by memory.
Art works because it appeals to certain faculties of the mind. Music depends on details of the auditory system, painting and sculpture on the visual system. Poetry and literature depend on language.
Music is an art form. It is a way to wordlessly communicate.
Poems are a form of music, and language just happens to be our instrument - language and breath.
Poetry is that art which selects and arranges the symbols of thought in such a manner as to excite the imagination the most powerfully and delightfully.
Music embodies feeling without forcing it to contend and combine with thought, as it is forced in most arts and especially in the art of words.
Music happens to be an art form that transcends language.
Poetry, almost by definition, calls attention to its language and form.
Slowly poetry becomes visual because it paints images, but it is also musical: it unites two arts into one.
In music, you feel a connection to the voice and think about the person behind it. In art that's secondary.
