This forum is for INTENSIVE critique of poems. We prefer poems that exhibit attention to good imagery, sonics, grammar, and originality. We believe in Ezra Pound's dictum to "Make it new."
It is considered bad form to "critique the critic".
Please post a MINIMUM of two detailed critiques of other's poems for each one that you post.
Rudeness and "drive-by" critiques are strongly discouraged.
If your poetic and critiquing skills consistently don't meet our standards, you will be asked to participate in the "critique-lite" forum - Critique and Comments.
If you are a new poster, we ask that you pay your "critique debt" before posting your second poem.
