The Spring in my Step (Rhyming Schemes and Traditonal Themes) (1 Viewer)

[dark_tranquility]

When writing poetry, do you guys follow the traditional writing methods, or do your own thing for the most part?
i.e. rhyming and following a set theme for example.

I never used to follow a rhyming scheme, but then I decided to.
To get a feel of the great poets before me, I look up to.

In saying that.

Do you also have a favourite poet or inspiration when writing poems?

Lastly big or complex words don't make a poem.
People will tell you it does, but it really doesn't.

If anything it adds to the stress of trying to decipher the piece overall.
A great poet will have the simplest poem, but everyone can understand it

While someone who doesn't know poetry, will use big words, but to the point of not understanding their own word use.

Thanks

I definitely just do my own thing, idk anything about how you're supposed to write a poem (never had that conversation lol) but I've been writing all my life.. I wasn't inspired to write by any poets either, I hardly even know any poets/poems.. I just write lyric-like poems to express my own emotions, usually..

I was taught poetry, but then I wrote my own way as well in time.
I think all have that instinctiveness to write for ourselves eventually.

I still follow a structure, but not nearly as much as I used to.

I try to use rhyme, as often i can
Between two lines or again and again
The words have a melody to it this way
To the ones who dont like it, say "fuck off mate"
