Poetry is making a comeback because, ta da, the metaphorical
language used in poetry is useful in developing the language
for things like quantum theory or, gasp, even art.
 
I see more "poetically" structured exhibits lately, where one
thing does not necessarily lead to another but demands
interaction. Unfortunately, they tend to be accompanied by
long didactic wall labels.
 
Now, back to Wordsworth...
