The problem with poetry, as I see it, is that is too vague and indeed requires what we call today "empathy" from the reader. I simply do not agree with the term "empathy". It is a non-word for me much like "interesting" and "nothing". These words don't mean anything and rather the reader transforms them into meaning by reflecting their own predispositions.

thankyou for your opinion, There are many forms of prose and poetry and some have great storytelling and rhythm that encourages deeper intelligence and communication ability which has worked wonders in language therapy. Some people (maybe the majority) read poetry for entertainment and i think it is a much better way of exploring lucidity in our world than LSD
It does indeed offer this opportunity. I am not denying its effects. I am just stating my personal preference.
