Please I know I am only an amateur poet, not even published or even taken any classes on the subject. My main question whenever I read someone else's poetry is: "What is this about?" I mean usually my views and emotions (must be) are different than thiers, so I am usually just confused or haughty when I read poetry that is not mine. Does this mean I lack the fundamental empathy most humans have? Or am I Narcissistic? Do I just read the wrong poetry? Help me, for I like to share my own, but not necessarily read others....(posted 9425 days ago)Todd
