RE: Sticky: READ BEFORE POSTING!I personaly feel that it takes all types of poetry to make a book interesting. I feel that any poet does their best to write what is in their heart. What ever the subject be. A lot of people are new to poetry.I want to give them a good jump start and hand they deserve it. Poetry takes a lot of thought. Any write worth doing deserves a chance. |

RE: Re: Sticky: READ BEFORE POSTING![quote="sk"]This is OUTSTANDING news! Firstly it gets rid of that nonsense that was going on, and secondly, it makes people give constructive criticism....not bashing...I think it's great; I always felt a little wierd even rating a poem on a scale of 1-10, because I felt, who am I to rate someone else's feelings and experiences? These poems are personal stuff! Anyway, I think it is unfortunate that the webmaster has to remind everyone to be cordial and respectful, but I am grateful that he/she/they are taking this step.[/quote] |

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.
Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
