    Craft is the more prominent feature of literary art than inspiration.

    "Practice makes it perfect." Many people write inspired drivel. It takes hard work and practice to be great. "Inspiration is a necessity, while craft is a tool." I think you have to consider that statement again. the simplest example I can say is language. When a kid is born, he is not "born with" the language but, he is "learning" the language. Of course he have the ability to speak, but if he don't use it he will lose that ability forever. So, he have the "inspiration" but not the "tool" and hence, he won't have any use with his "inspiration." As you said "inspiration is just the motivation behind writing". That motivation won't always make a good writer. It needs work too. "How does reading another work motivate one to write?" I considered that question as well. But think about it. Suppose, you are an inspirational writer and you wrote so many works. But now, after you have written down all of your ideas on a piece of paper, you wouldn't know what to write next. So you try reading the famous works of other writers. I don't mean plagiarism, but, when you read a book based on a certain theme, you are evoking your ideas relating to that theme.

    The talent of a writer will fade out if he didn't use craft. Reading another writers' works will help to introduce better technics and literary devices to your own writing.

    Poetry is a notoriously difficult concept. It is a highly challenging subject to teach, for its identity as an art form is constantly changing and being debated

    If top academics and those highly informed about the subject take issue with poetry, school pupils cannot be expected to fathom it. On December 7th, 2007, The Guardian, a British newspaper affiliated to the Left, noted that this ambiguous identity of poetry renders it very difficult to teach;"But until education theory asks itself what poetry itself is, and therefore what the teacher is trying to get across, poems will continue largely to figure as teaching aids, exercises and - for teenagers - increasingly tedious, somewhat arbitrary puzzles".1 The canonised poets and their poetry are concerned with adult life experiences, e.g. love, life, work, history and politics, solitude, loneliness, etc. For this reason, widely acclaimed poetry is deep and requires an adult mind and mature emotional depth to understand, or at least draw something from, this famous poetry. 1 Sampson, Fiona, "Poetry is not a tool for teaching other things", guardian.co.uk Books Blog, 7 December 2007, 1 September 2011

    If any art is to be taught in schools, it has to be Poetry, for poetry is the only artistic form of a core subject.

    It is an enjoyable way to teach the core subject of home language and literature written therein; interesting and obscure concepts hold the learner's interest when studying their home language and its landmark literature, while simultaneously expanding vocabulary and improving spelling. Poetry offers a fun method of teaching subjects that can otherwise easily be exhaustive and repetitive For examples; Shirley Hughes' poems for young readers such as Best friends introduce young readers to the vowel sounds of their home language. The Charge of the Light Brigade by Alfred, Lord Tennyson teaches the reader about a great historical landmark. The war poetry of Wilfred Owen, Siegfried Sassoon et al teaches students about the First World War and the horrors thereof. Zoe's Earrings by Kit Wright teaches pre-GCSE students about accents.1 1 Wright, Kit, "Zoe's Earrings", BBC Learning Zone, accessed 1 September 2011

    If nervegear existed would people use it to evil end like in SAO (Sword Art Online)

    Even if boundaries were put in place someone is always going to find a loophole or just break the rule entirely and do it just by saying it is a bad thing to do is not going to stop someone from doing it. Why would you kidnap the target when someone could see it when you can kill some by simply hacking into their nervegear device or if you know the person you can just remove the device form the person while they are using it and they are dead just like that. The nervegear device no matter how much good it would bring to the world of gaming it would ultimately be used in ways that people probably wouldn't have though of like making a game like the one in SAO where the user cannot log out. This would be used to keep them their until you get what you want and if they don't tell you well they can stay trapped in the game forever. Having someone stuck in a game like that knowing that with one step out of a safe zone or city you could die and not see you family or friends again would be traumatising to youth and adults.
