“Poetry is to prose as dancing is to walking” -John Wain
I was supposed to find a quote about poetry, and also come up with my own definition.

Hello Sushi, you are the love of my life!
My lord I eat in a restaurant
In fact, you’re the reason I lost my wife!
No size plate of Sushi, could me daunt
Tire me not, and I’ll eat you
No greater concoction would I devour
But if you get too bland, then we’ll be through
You I could eat for 2 hours
I will go to the buffet, you will be mine!
I put you on my plate, you will be mine!
Oh, dinner partner, together we dine.
Never before have I met someone so fine.
