Who is a verse maker
Poetry is an odd art form practised where there are more poets then writers because everybody, especially when young has a poem (usually hormonal) that needs expression, some end up as art teachers and prefer not to speak of their youthful attempts. Seasoned poets go to poetry meetings, rather like alcoholics go to AA there is always some new way, to express old truths some of the old crusty ones run poem magazines and have a firm opinion on how poetry should be written; the best of them, care more about content than writing rules. The public, at large, only knows that poetry is romantic something to do, with flowers and trees and love made on soft, green grass. The real poetry world is a narrow one, those who are famous in that world are spoken about with awe. Old poets are grotty, smelly and eccentric, but are loved anyway.
