I have enjoyed poetry and written some but I never felt on fire by poetry before this summer. In our town a group of writers and poets decended upon us. I went to every reading I possibly could and LOVED it. I am on fire for poetry now. There is no greater treat than to hear a poet read their own work....so splendid. so it's not dead for me. It has sprung to life for me.
