I can make myself someone else, in a conversation about a subject. So I can relate to the subject as much as possible. What's being praised as much as what's being ridiculed. Sponge things up, and let the conversation, my parts and others' parts, squeeze fresh feelings out of it. And old feelings too.
In response to what Leanne said, I dont resent educated poets. I resent when people tell me that based on my poetry and other writings I am clearly deranged. So I write raging poems full of jive talk and personal quirks out of the sweet muse of spite. But they are mostly love poems. Me speaking as someone in love.
