So:
If a poem is written on the page but cannot survive the stage, is it still a good poem?
And if so, then is the converse also true:
If a poem is performed on stage but cannot survive the page, is it still a good poem?
Does a poem have to have a deeper meaning, or can it simply celebrate the sound of words put together?
Is word art poetry?
Is graffiti poetry?
Does a poem have to be written in a language? Is it dependent on language or can it transcend language altogether?
If a poem is born in a secluded room, but no one hears it or reads it, did it really exist?

Sol LeWitt said "the idea itself, even if it is not made visual, is an much a work of art as any finished product."
It would seem the same goes for poetry...?
