Non-poets don't know it

It's a great idea to spiffy up the Indianapolis airport terminal with works of art, and it's an idea we might consider here. But there's one part of it they might want to rethink:

The Indianapolis Airport Authority and Writers' Center of Indiana are asking poets to submit writing that could be incorporated into works created by Martin Donlin.

It's been my experience that public calls for poetry yiled approximately 1,352 works of sentimental tripe and drivel for every piece that could remotely be called art.
