Where Is The Poet That Can Inspire Once Again?

WHERE IS THE POET THAT CAN INSPIRE ONCE AGAIN?

Where is the poet that can inspire once again?
I have heard them all so many times-
Even the great are only familiar lines -

I wait for something different
From another dimension-

But it is not they who are tired
Or limited-
You can find worlds in them if you reread again-

It is I who have lost my soul for Poetry
And not only for Poetry-

It is I who am old and tired –

There can be no new poet and no new poem and no new poetry
When I have gone to the other side
Where listening and hearing are impossible.
