    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    This was also the case last year and in 2011 it wasn't held at all.
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.
