no - "that even minor poetry"... implies a larger effect from greater poetry. I was a little more focused on how poetry (even "MINOR") opens one up to the world more.

Besides - "trying to suggest" sounds like work, like I actually have some sort of mental filter that I have the slightest clue how to own and operate. Nuances are not my style/energy level.

You're not trying to suggest my haiku are minor poetry, are you?

Thought about you/your haiku ways (quote from an old biddy murder mystery writer/one of my old faves):

"She went to bed thinking more about another person that about herself. This goes to prove that even minor poetry may have its practical uses."
