Where is a good place to start with poetry? I have never touched poetry in my life aside from some compulsory stuff in school which I have long forgotten, and I have no idea what might interest me. Any recommendations or charts out there?

Get an anthology, that way you can find what you like and go from there

I tried playing that but got sick of it after an hour.

Anthologies are for philistines, start with the Greeks.

>The anthology offers more poetry by women (40 new poets), with special attention to early women poets. The book also includes a greater diversity of American poetry, with double the number of poems by African American, Hispanic, native American and Asian American poets
How about something a little bit more white and male?

the writing is better than i though it'd be, Monika's third(?) is legitmately p good, and so is Sayori's first.
Plath is a good start if you like free verse, Frost is probably the person i'd recommend everyone start with though.
Benjamin Young
help me out man where did you read that? lole
this is what goodreads says about the book aforementioned:
Over three editions, The Norton Anthology of Poetry has become the classroom standard for the study of poetry in English. A wide and deep quarry of poems from the medieval period to the present, it is a book instructors rely on as a uniquely flexible teaching anthology, and one that students delve into well beyond college. Now, responding to new scholarship, classroom suggestions, and the vitality and diversity of poetry itself, the Fourth Edition introduces a wealth of new poets and poems as well as thoroughly revised editorial apparatus.

poetry in your native language. Pick a favorite. Mine are early modernist poets, especilla around themes like loneliness, the outsider in this unfeeling modern life.
