The Poet (n.) is the vanguard of humanity and the hope of some new understanding of being (rather than the philosopher or the priest or the scientist) because language is a marvelously powerful way to change the practices, focus them and add new practices to Dasein's way of life.
The Poet (n.) is important because being itself, and the essence of specific beings, are never visible at a glance as soon as we open our eyes, but must first be created and founded through the kind of naming that is done by poets.
The Poet (n.) is the discoverer of what endures — “but what endures is founded by poets.”
The Poet (n.) is an appeal and event of disclosure that cannot truly happen unless its readers are attuned to it.
A Poet (n.) in a destitute time is one who attends, singing, to the trace of the fugitive gods.
