Why write poetry if there's no percentage in it?

So it its all about life and living it. So the answer is do something about it today now don't wait, It is not about money or envy, or stuff or pain it is about the art of being content now, not tomorrow. If you rare waiting for someone else to deliver your contentment. You are going to be disappointed. Again. So pause, take a deep breath and live now building for contentment, In who you are today. It just so much fun being alive. To abuse a Bon Jovi lyric "I'll sleep when I am dead"

It is not sleep it is death that is much worse.

"Why write poetry if there's no percentage in it?"  Gregory Benford in Jupiter Project page 14, Bantam Spectra Books 1990
