when crafting or trying to craft poetry.
i'm not on about what specific thing, i guess i mean what subject, how do we pick it and/or imbue it. what do we need to bring to the table in order for it to work. the reason i ask is mainly because of a couple of poems that i recently read that have no connections as far as i can tell to any kind of personal experience, or to anything that can be called imaginative recollections. this isn't a stone throwing thread at any of us, me included. i'd just love to see some input into help others and each other find the best kind of material we can use as individuals. for me it's all about personal experience and a good imagination. an ability to create reality. or an ability to share a real reality in an original way. any views out their as to what you think the answer is?
