feelings ... I'd love to make people feel Amused ...
but *I* feel there isn't really time for that, so usually i aim for Angry or Appalled.
As though poetry, one of the last bastions of magic, could still make a difference.
(but perhaps I'm widely on Mute by now ... ๐ )

Today at the #PoetryCafe weโre talking about feelings.
How does poetry make you feel? How do you want your poetry to make others feel? Does poetry need feelings?

In 2017, my first poetry collection launched with @vpresspoetry@Twitter.com
I have a 2nd with them toward the end of the year. Till then, I'll post vids of me reading from Bolt Down This Earth, the first one https://youtu.be/Os2IVEa0ab4

@miksimum 
Some poems cannot be fully appreciated without the text. 
Some poems cannot be fully appreciated unless heard.
Some poems should never be spoken except by (or directed by) the poet.
Some poets should never read their own poetry aloud.
Most people should never read any modern poetry aloud (except in an empty room)
Where are you, Richard Burton?
@miksimum 
To be successful, a poem should at least seem to mean something on first reading.
To be great, a poem needs either truly remarkable observation, a magical play on words, or more than one layer. Preferably all of those.
You might never fully understand a poem until you discuss it with the poet and see all their notes.
The poet might never fully understand the poem until a reader analyses it.
Lately Iโve been tilting my poetry collection toward โPoetry by favorite speculative fiction authors who didnโt treat poetry as their main thing.โ
The newest addition arrived today!
I shall report back! ๐ง
