Shade asked:


I’ve been thinking of submitting some of my poetry to some magazines, and I was wondering if publishers don’t want you to submit the same pieces to different magazines? Even if I submit a piece a long time after its been published elsewhere to a new magazine, would tat be frowned upon? Does anyone know?

Okay so I have a question for all of you because I can’t seem to find the poetry within me. How did poetry first come to you and how did it develop within you. What is your current relationship with is as a reader, listener and writer? What’s your experience of the first time you encountered it, maybe in grade school. How were you led into it and who led you in?

Lizzie asked:


Hi. I am writing a college paper for my English class. I need to analyze a few poem’s figurative language (metaphors, similes, personification, etc.). Each poem needs to revolve around the same theme, so I picked identity. Does anyone know of any poems that have mirrors or another reflective surface where the author is in search of his or her identity, or anything along those lines? I already have Sylvia Plath’s “Mirror.” Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
