There is indeed a beauty, a simplicity in truth that can superlatively be experienced through a poem. In this sense, a poem is nothing but a doorway.
What separates poetry from prose is more a function of perception rather than mere literary infrastructure. Prose may get you hooked, dreaming and the like; but reading poetry releases you from a cage that is wide open already and always.
It is the poem that gives you access to the beyond.
It is by far the easiest medium of transmission for some of the noblest and most pristine emotions that can occur in a human.
Reasons are obvious- a poem is precise, it has a song to it, can be mellifluous and meaningful, thoughtful and transcedental.
