LOL are we trying to call any Jpop artist's lyrics Poetry? That's stupid. The only artist I'd even classify as poetic is Onitsuka Chihiro (and in only a FEW of her songs). Both Ayu and Hikki, whether we like it or not, GENERALLY sing about superficial things that don't really get any depth to them, ESPECIALLY now a days. Seriously, Uemarasan is kinda being an ass about it, but he's got a point. Whoever called Hikki's (or Ayu's for that matter) lyrics poetic is an idiot who knows nothing about poetics
