Let's be honest, if we write #poetry, we do it because we are exceptional people, we do it because we are better than most people, in fact we do it because we are better than most poets (even if we are not) As doctor Johnson would say, we believe that our creativity lifts us above the common herd.

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

I lift my lamp beside the golden door.
