How much time have you spent reading Shakespeare or Yeats this last year?
They're different category of communication with different expectations and boundaries.
Put a melody to the following and see if it makes it into the top forty.
"Can death be sleep, when life is but a dream,
And scenes of bliss pass as a phantom by?
The transient pleasures as a vision seem,
And yet we think the greatest pain's to die.
How strange it is that man on earth should roam,
And lead a life of woe, but not forsake
His rugged path; nor dare he view alone
His future doom which is but to awake."

"Reality is that which when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away."
Woods hands pick by eye and ear
Made to one with pride and love
To be that we hold so dear
A voice from heavens above
