Poetry doesn't matter to most people. One has to wonder if poetry has any place in the 2lst century, when music videos and satellite television offer daunting competition for poems, which demand a good deal of attention and considerate analytic skills, as well as some knowledge of the traditions of poetry.(1)____

But readers had few choices in those days.(2)____ One imagines, perhaps false, that paople actually liked poetry.(3)____ It provided them with narratives that entertained and inspired. They gave them words to attach to their feelings. They enjoyed folk ballads, too.(4)____ (5)____ In the sense, music and poetry joined hands.
