Lies that always tell the Truth

What is poetry? This question allows for several and diverse answers. It relates for sure with all forms of love, pain, and folly. Poetry is perhaps the ultimate effort to dive into or fly toward the unknown, to touch it with awe but without taboo or prejudices, having always in mind that it will be a lie which will certainly enclose the truth.
