Poetry For Teachers
Where are all the masters in poetry?
Maybe someone could shed light on this issue. Some people I know who have taught poetry at this site. But I never had a comment on my poetry to them and that leaves me puzzled as to why. I love comments whether positive or negative. I disagree with some of my critics all the time, but they do. Some people admire my work, they hate, they do not understand and some who simply enjoy to just pick something to do. However, the comment is what I'm looking for. So if you have taught or are currently teaching poetry Please comment if this post and future poems, I can see. Thanks in advance.
I'm not a master of poetry, I am a student. However, I am mostly self taught. I read a lot of poetry …. old and new, formal and informal, amateur and professional and therefore I learned. I can recommend a wonderful book "The Ode Less Stephen Fry traveled …. explains much poetry, and it's fun too. I have not read one of his poems, I can not say why you do not get much in the way of response. However, three years ago, when I was joined LM in the same position. I started to read and discuss the Poetry Of others (and I mean a comment – not only said: "It's amazing", etc) and little by little, people began responding to my messages. Now, to be totally honest, if I read A Poem that I feel I can not find something positive to say – I pass. I'm not criticizing the first poems when I see some spark there. Therefore, before sending you try to make sure you have something that we have worked a lot – not something that has been destroyed five minutes and I'm sure the comments are starting to happen.
