Hey guys!
Names Daniel, but I guess that doesn't really matter.
I'm new to poetry entirely, I've just recently developed an interest in expanding my knowledge of the craft since finding a poetry book by Charles Bukowski and becoming enthralled by the simple yet awe inspiring brilliance that a few lines can have.
Was just wondering... I don't know if I'm really suited to critique anyone's poetry since, well, I'm not very experienced, and I don't want to say anything silly about someone else's work.
Is this the only way that I can discuss poetry? I really joined this forum to get some recommendations from users with more of a back log of poets and forms of poetry, and to learn about all things poetry, and I'm not exactly interested in posting my own extremely novice poems.
Ok, so, I've taken the time to read through a few of the instructional posts and it seems that this forum expects me to give critiques...
I'll attempt it, but as I said before, I'm a complete poetry newbie. I hope that the things I say don't sound too ridiculous, so, apologies in advance :3
