I'm getting tired of all of the "geek humor" everywhere ( unicorns, ponies, lolcatz, etc.) however... I fit this description of a "poet" to a T.

At one start up a few years ago, my title on my business card was even "Code Poet".

I also happen to have an undergrad degree in Creative Writing with a focus in Poetry.

IMHO, studying poetry gives one practice in saying only what you mean and focusing on the semantics and syntax of language both technically & aesthetically. I also think that one should have an education in Liberal Arts to truly understand great design; whether that's software architecture, visual design, or business models.
