are we in the throes of losing the greatness of poetry.
all those classics we've read and know. (well the ones that you know
)
is that it, or will there be more form this era to take their place. maybe it's because i'm not well read like some, that i see a diminishing return of good poets over the last 50 or so years. i was wondering if it was simply because there's so much shite about that the good poets are buried beneath the dross, or is it the truth that quality poetry isn't there any more?
