Date: 2024-04-29 09:25 am (UTC)Poetry exists in many styles and not everyone likes what may be readily available. Haiku is usually easy to grasp because it's brief and deals with nature. Narrative poetry tells a story. Form poetry has a structure you can learn to follow; I'm a fan of repeating-interlocking forms myself. But a lot of the modern stuff is deliberately opaque.
If you want some to explore, I've got a huge archive of mine under the Poem tag, available for anyone to read free. Form Poem is a subsection of that. The Serial Poetry page has narrative poems that fit together. If you're not sure how to approach poetry, see Books Written and check the supporting materials -- there are discussion questions and such.
Want to watch poetry being made live? Drop by the Poetry Fishbowl. Next up will be Tuesday, May 7 with a theme of "Protopia" (a place that gradually gets better). The crosstalk among the audience can get really fun.
