Wow! Awesome! I loved all these words to describe poetry! Zippy was my favorite!
I dont' read near enough poetry but when I come across something I like it generally has a deep impact on me, whether it is something profound or just something fun.
Carl, I agree with you. I think poetry by its nature is meant to evoke an emotional response. If it doesn't, in my opinion it fails. That's one of the problems I have with some contemporary poets whose work is so obscure. If obscure, how can the reader react to the text? Whether the intended reaction is profound or humorous, it should be the emotional response that poetry aims for.

And some and some!
