disagree...mostly because of 'sensitive dependence on initial 
conditions'...i.e., remove one small seemingly insignificant element 
from a system and you will have a completely different system at some 
point in time...
example: without algebra you wouldn't have had the Bourbaki; without 
Bourbaki you wouldn't have had OULIPO; without OULIPO there wouldn't 
have been Calvino, Perec, Queneau...
as a result poetry might well NOT have been the 'same thing'...
