Keep It Simple Stupid

Poetry is what gets lost in translation.
- Robert Frost

I like this quote because it is saying that poetry doesn't need to be complicated. If it is too complicated, people become confused and lose sight of what the poem is really saying. Many people feel the need to use words that are not needed when a simple word could be used, have the same meaning, and not lose people. I think it just goes to show that a poem does not necessarily have to be wordy to show what it has to say.
