didactic poetry

yes

No. Didactic is defined as inclined to teach or moralize excessively.

No, it is not true. Poetry can be both artistic in form and contain didactic elements. The artistic form of poetry allows poets to explore complex themes and emotions, while didactic poetry aims to teach or instruct the reader on a particular subject or moral lesson. These elements can coexist in poetry, contributing to its richness and depth.
