[Serious] Poetry

RE: Poetry
(January 5, 2020 at 1:33 pm)Editz Wrote: I dislike virtually all poetry, finding it pretentious, and all the more so because it is extremely quick and easy to put together compared to, say, literature, graphic novels, film, oil paintings, music composition and production etc etc etc so when people act like their poetry is all serious and profound and shit...er...yeah, pretentious. Never read it, if I can help it. The few poets I've actually met are also amongst the least likeable people I've met, so that jibes.

You got us. Our lot in life is to piss everyone off to the point of being hated like Hitler, Po Pot, Stalin and Hitler.

Or you simply don't know how to judge individual poems.

Art is nothing more than message, be it music, painting, sculpture or movies. Nobody is going to like all of any of that !00% of the time. But we all can find messages we like.
