A Question about Poets and Poetry.

As someone who spent time in a workshop as a boy, and learned how to use most of the tools, I would never consider myself a carpenter. Simply being able to build something doesn't really imbue one with the title. I think, it goes beyond that. To me, a carpenter must have a certain level of professionalism, care for his craft,  in addition to the ability to create.

Honestly, I dont' have this figured out, but I do know that to say something, or even believe something, does not make it so.
