'poetry rocks!'

 Heartening article by Jackie Kay celebrating an apparent 'poetry renaissance' in the UK. Could it be (using Auden's terms) that this increasingly mad England under the Coalition is "hurting us into poetry" - something authentic, hand-crafted and unquantifiable "where executives would never want to tamper"?
