Adeshina,
All poetry is not elitist or masses oriented. The themes and the platforms mainly make poems elitist or masses oriented.
You very well know that if I were not writing in this era of social media, I would have been composing and rendering my poems at town squares, markets and similar places where the masses are found, not in palaces as royalty would never have tolerated the themes of my poetry.
CAO.
