how do I get into poetry?

read poetry and books about poetry. yes, any are fine.

You lurk until you see an namefag whose name ends in "TWPoet", then you ask him. He'll love the recognition.

Poetry is fucking garbage.

You have to share the same tastes in poetry as the ruling literary elite, or be liked by the ruling literary elite for some other reason.

Their tastes and likes also change every season, so be sure to stay up to date with the latest trends.

It's a club house, and only cool people are invited.

you dont. you stop getting into stupid shit, and then poetry will get into you.

poetry is like health. you dont eat or do health, you just lead a general lifestyle with healthy habits, and health is the general outcome.

not being able to get into poetry is simply sign of an unhealthy mind that is being fed unhealthy stuff.

Fucking garbage is poetic.

You read it?

This is like asking "how to get into TV" or something equally as retarded.

Read Rhyme's Reason and then start with anthologies to find poets you like.
