Biassed poet?

What Im wondering is if the art of poetry has too much license

in the free verse genre? Yes all things evolve in time but poetry today seems to be stuck in the notion that anyone with an idea can write it down and call it poetry. Shouldnt poetry be about more than just stream of conscious and actually incorporate meter, tempo, rythme and style? Isnt that the art of poetry?

The thought and work of finding the best words to espress a complex thought with elegance and symetry?
