You're wrong about poetry.
It's blood formed in words,
fragments of emotion
seeking agency--and failing.

There is something beautiful
about that.

I sent a hare out blazing
through the snow, whippet fast,
blur of grey frantically passing
under your nose, a torrent of prey.

The alpha stands on his hill,
watching from above....

Will he attack?

Depends on the hunger.
