Kara asked:


I’m doing this poetry assignment in school and have to find six poems by 2-3 different poets and draw a picture for each of them. We had to choose a theme, so I chose love, but I’m leaning more towards the darker side of love, kinda the hate-love situation. They have to be published poets though, like in a book, so it would help lots if you could mention the book it could be found in.
Thanks in advance! I’m counting on you! <3 Mwah!

I always have trouble understanding poems. I just don’t get poetry. Is there a certain way to read and understand poetry? Is it a skill? Are there any poets out there that are easier to read and understand what they are talking about?

skumpfsklub asked:


Seriously, this seems to me a VASTLY neglected and very important part of ordinary life. Don’t poets do laundry? Don’t they get bored while the clothes are in the driers?
