A poem is more vision than picture,
not a snapshot, but an eye to see through,
or the light by which seeing is possible,
a flashbulb that, when you look at the world,
flashes anew.

[I think I'll add another poem, since the one above seems a bit below par to me.]
A poem is a one-way valve:
you enter at the beginning.
In two more lines
you will leave. Already
you cannot go back.
