Confusing Poets

Poets are very artistic individuals. So when the question rises of, do poets purposely write their poems in attempt to confuse their audience? I would have to answer "no," simply because I feel that most writers write to express their thoughts and emotions in ways that distinguish them from other poets. In every kind of art, rather music, poetry, painting, acting, and many other forms of arts, I feel that people seek for originality and we as the audience don't want to see the same things from every artist, because that would then become very redundant and for some reason our human minds can’t seem to appreciate things that we see on a regular basis or things we hear too often. So I don't think poets strive to make their writings as difficult or confusing as possible I honestly think they try to be more different than other poets. Most people strive for individuality and I strongly believe that is what makes us as people so unique. Though we were created equally in the image of God, the Lord also makes us our own person, though we may have similar ideas however, no two individuals think the same. The fact that we as people don’t think the same is what I believe constitute our uniqueness and that is why poets express their poems in ways that truly define their feelings. I also believe people find different meanings in poetry based on their ability to connect with the poem. I feel if the person is able to draw some kind of personal connection to the subject of the poem, they are then less likely to be confused with the poem, and another beautiful thing about poetry is that we have the ability to translate it in whatever way we want. The Bible for example is full of poetry however; people have found so many different meanings to writings of these poets that we now have so many different denominations based on the translation of the biblical poems.
