Poems of Shylock

This book is a compilation of poems and prose but it is really about fine poetry. Fine poetry is the music of mathematics - Elegance-Rhythm-Good Order-Feeling of the Unknown - are some characteristics. Look behind the words for their meanings. For sometimes poetry is colored by the Poet's philosophical, political and social leanings. This book also illustrates the truthfulness of the following: A great poet is one who expresses our thoughts and feelings --Shylock A good writer/poet is a person who has done enough reading throughout a lifetime and has internalized the rhythms of the written word and has refined the ability to mimic those rhythms --Professor X (paraphrased) Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen --leonardo da Vinci L'imagination est plus importante que la connaissance Imagination is more important than knowledge --Albert Einstein
