That's what I meant elsewhere, about a poet needing enough ego to stick to his guns. And if it turns out that his opinion is changed to the point that he now feels he was wrong, that's, for better or worse, part of communication. But if he's strong enough in his own opinions, he can say plenty about his own poems, and in feedback of others. If there was a no critique thread, that's fine, but it seems many here now wouldn't comment as much on them.
