If it sounds like poetry, moves like poetry and feels like poetry. It must be poetry.

It can use some editing:

While working on my site I started tucking little interesting things in here and there on the pages.

Stuff like this:

Air, water and pen are essential to a poet's survival.

Yes, you can have both. I can have it all. I can have poetry. I can have bullshit. I can have the pleasure of Senna Jawa's comments... oh wait, that's the bullshit!

Putting it all together

Eve, having read your, kdog's, and senna's comments, I think the fortune is:

Poetry is bullshit reborn.

or

Poetry rises phoenix-like from the ashes of bullshit.

or

One woman's bullshit is some man's poetry.

or

you get the idea......

LOL

A. and O.T. you summed poetry and bullshit up nicely. SJ, thank you for showing us the parallel between bullshit and poetry... or did you? No, you didn't. You said one or the other. Oh, how wrong you were.

You must have channeled the sarcasm, SJ, because it wasn't in the original.
