Eden Anderson started the topic I have a crazy idea… in the forum Poetry Discussions 7 years, 3 months ago
I got a crazy idea.
I don’t know how I got it or where it came from…but it’s here.
And it’s stuck. And is showing no sign of leaving any time soon…
I’ve tried to talk sense to myself, but this idea just keeps on popping right back up, strong and persistant.
I CANNOT get rid of it.
And since I can’t make it leave, I am resolved to do something about it…
But I need your help.
First, let me tell you what the crazy idea is:
I want to learn to write poetry.
It’s absurd, I know…but I really do.
Can you help me?
I have no idea where to start or what to do…I am so lost.
So, two questions:
1. Is it even possible for somebody to learn how to write poetry? (Or do you have to have some sort of heaven-blessed gift or something…?)
2. Where do I start?
Any advice would be very happily accepted! 😁

And just so you know, I only have hedge-hugs to give in exchange for advice. I’m poor. 😉
Please tag other poets you know of…
