How to learn to write modern poetry?

Compared with classical poetry, modern poetry is indeed arbitrary in form without too many constraints. Modern poetry is the development and continuation of China's poetry culture, not a school of poetry introduced from the West. Xu Zhimo's poems are modern, and so are his crescent poems. The genre of China's modern poetry is similar to that of western poetry.

Learn how to write modern poetry: Personally, I think, first of all, you should learn to refine sentences. Poetry pays attention to expressing rich emotional content with few words and sentences. Secondly, we should use more parallelism sentences, and modern poems composed of many parallelism sentences are also very aesthetic. Modern poetry mainly needs to pay attention to its formal beauty, whether it rhymes or not. Just rhyme.

Books to read: I suggest you read more magazines such as Poetry Review, Poet and Modern Poetry. Second, read more books on poetry appreciation.

The above is a simple summary of my own study of modern poetry. See if you are interested in poetry creation, have hobbies and are willing to write. If you practice more, you will get good grades.
