Maybe it's more like whisky. To some people, it's just something to get drunk on so they guzzle it without it even touching the sides. Others will sip and appreciate peaty tones or brandy backgrounds with a satisfied sigh. Still others will swirl it ostentatiously around in the glass, go on loudly about the "legs" and pretentiously announce that they can tell it was filtered through a black cow's udder on a Saturday.
To me, poetry is a fairly personal experience. I like to savour it but I don't like to be told what I should and shouldn't enjoy, or what is or isn't "the right stuff". I find it where I find it, not where anyone else does.
