About poetry

I have three years of experience in writing metrical poems (ancient poems). I don't recommend learning to write metrical poems, because there are too many skills in it, which is really difficult to learn. I think it is better to write modern free verse if it is a combination of language and thought.

Give you some advice.

1, read more books, Chinese and foreign poems. Choose your favorite poetry type, which is realism, modernism or romanticism. I focus on modernism. If you are interested, please contact me.

2. Think more. Think more about multilingual skills, word selection, scene construction, etc., and learn from other people's styles and skills.

3, write less. Writing poetry is by no means a matter of writing more. Less but better is king.

4. Make more changes. After writing a poem, you have to revise it yourself. Some of my poems have been revised twice as much as the first draft.

5. Communicate more. There are many online professional poetry forums, and it's good to know some predecessors. Don't believe too much that poetry publications are basically rubbish.

That's all. In addition, take poetry as a game and a pleasure in life. Don't be an ideal in life. This is my experience.
