Poetry is both a visual and an auditory art. This is why listening to poetry is never completely satisfying to the senses; we also need to see the poem on the page.
Reading poetry, we see image and structure. Hearing poetry, we hear music and narrative.
The art, complete.
The senses, completely fulfilled.
