Help with understanding poetry?

Monday, September 21st, 2009

I am old, I can’t afford to go to school, but am very interested in poetry. I’m a realtive newcomer to the genre and was wondering if anyone has advise on a book or website on reading and understanding poetry. I enjoy reading and think I have a pretty good handle on it but I’m sure there is something I’m missing.
I like what I like also but there is more in the symbolism, the meter, and so on that can augment the meaning of the poem.

Does anyone know why e e cummings uses weird structure and form in his poetry?

Sunday, August 30th, 2009

More specifically, is there something in his life that made him so eccentric? Like did he experience something that caused him to be weird.
I am writing a research paper and I think my thesis is going to be on his unique form. If there any other suggestions for a thesis let me know as well.
Thank you!

Could anyone suggest any publications for my daughter’s poetry?

Sunday, August 9th, 2009

She is 13 years old and most of it is really, very good.
Yes, I’ll admit that I’m biased but if you read some of it you would understand. Not all of it is good, not when she tries too hard but she’s written a few that are really deep. Even a couple very funny ones.
