On wiritng poetry

 What should a young poet mind, then starting the prestigeous and proud craft of Poetry? First of all -- don't give a fuck! Seconds, find a good and strict teacher and shut the fuck up. No attitude and no lip. Leave those on the paper. You prove your points by writing them, not saying them!! A Poets opinion is his or her poems. That prooves your point, not arguing over something. If you can't take other peoples criticism, nor comprehend, why people make your craft bad, then you're in the wrong place. Don't expect people always lift you up, nor your belly to be always full, you in high spirits. Mostly you're gonna be under duress and constantly pressure yourself to get better, like Tonay Hawk doing a 1040 for the first time. Give yourself room to fuck up. Don't expect to immediately be the next Shakespeare or Swift, but give yourself enough encouragement and endaring to move towards that goal, if its yours to be taken. You learn, by studying from yours betters, but also by refusing spoilers. Its the eternal balancing game of respecting tradition, while being avant garde and moving forward outside of the checked box offices of the society. Don't expect people to read you, if you got nothing to say and want to please everybody. Poets are the Jokers Fuck You, then he made his shrink into Harley Queen! Its the moving around, then you decide the amount of gravity put to places and on you. You are God Almighty and decide who lives and who dies in your stories!! If you wanna be nice and play fair, then you get the Sunday love from your grandparents and loved-ones, but wont survive the bored and over-intoxicated people, who gorge values and ensightment for a living and lifestyle. What you gonna say to them, who's in a trainwreck -- you gotta increase your experience in depicting their calamity and terror. Focus on one picture and emotion; explore it to its fruition, until its done. There is no gain, unless you're really good, to ignore that rule, in gorging many topics and imaging, like food, while only nibbling on them all, and never eating any of them. Like Dumbledore talked about his possible death by a deatheater. He disliked the idea of, somebody playing with food or eating it all up -- for he wanted a dignified death.

The other problem is about temperature. If you're in a prude environment, any kind of speech, what is more sassy or rounchy, will put you off. If you, on the other hand, grow up in a tavern, you will not notice any kind of panther as good enough. Try to be balanced and well versed of these two absolutes and you avoid the moral failures of being a zealoth or a SJW combatting a Drunkard Sailor or smooth operator. Build your own character and your own stile. Many new things are well forgotten old things, in a new reverbalisation. Be a chameleon of thoughts. Have more than one topic to talk about. People will loose intrest, then you only about one thing. It might be a great theme, but it wont keep your warm in the night. Know your speech patterns, and get outside of your confort zone. Rules have principles, why they there given, and are not to be followed blindly. You will learn, the more you venture and dare as a writer. To my experience, it is harder to write shorter plays than longer, because you have to be more focused and on point, while on a large canvas you have more wriggle room. It can be a flaw or a strongpoint, depending on you, your likes and dislikes; your tastes and affinities. In the end, its about your conversation with the audience. You will decide the outcome of it!
