Poetry (ancient
Greek: ποιεω (poieo) = I create) is an
art form in which
human language
is used for its
aesthetic
qualities in addition to, or instead of, its
notional and
semantic
content. It may use condensed or compressed form to convey emotion or ideas to
the reader's or listener's mind or ear; it may also use devices such as
assonance
and repetition to achieve
musical or
incantatory effects.
