There are lots of ways to make money by writing - not many of them have to do with poetry though. I hate having to pay fees to enter contests, or to have something read, because to me $5 is a meal missed that week. Often, two meals, whereas to most of the people entering, $5 is one coffee out of twenty they drink that week. It's all a load of poo tickets anyway. 
I can't say I write for the love of it, because I'm too busy hating. Grrr. Fuck off, who asked you anyway? Carol Ann Duffy knows, but she's not talking. Or if she does, the accent cruels it.
