I'm a beginning lyricist straddling the line between lyrics and poetry. I'm looking to polish the craft and develop more variety. I look forward to learning with everyone.
Lyrics are poetry, that straddling in your head is just an illusion created by the duality of existence.
"Everyone" ? Be careful, there are some of us here who seek to de-learn you.
That said... almost every way, if you squint your eyes just right, is fun.
Welcome!

I'm new to the site and just generally new to poetry.
I've picked up poetry as a means to cope with my depression.
Depression is my way of coping with poetry.
But either way, one thing's clear: This place needs more CATS!
Welcome!

I'm new here and really excited to read some new stuff and hopefully share some of mine.
I've been writing for quite some time already, but only recently got into poetry and this sounds like the right place for inspiration and critique
I hope you're not just joking.
But welcome! (both regardlessly and irregardlessly)

A hobby is something you don't get paid for -- poetry IS a hobby.
Welcome!

Just wanted to say I'm really excited to use this site - I've been searching for a 'proper' poetry critique forum for a while!
Hope everyone's having an okay day.

Okay days don't produce poetry; so, yes, I'm having an OK day.
Welcome!
