But I'm sure nobody's interested in my bastard accounts of style and technique.
intersted, yes, undstand what you mean or say, not always, i'm not that into poetry o feelings of stuff. i'm just a common as muck arsehole who likes poetry. you're a definite asset to the site though.
anyway, how do i know if my poetry sucks...i expect honest feedback that says, it works or it doesn't. in general i start off with the attitude that my stuff sucks, i love it when more than two or three say a poem doesn't suck. it doesn't happen that often but when it does the feeling is all the better.
