/lit/ I want to get serious about writing poetry. Is reading the great writers enough or should I learn theory as well?

This tells me all I need to know that you will never actually start. You don’t have the conviction. You want to be handheld. The only answer is to write. The fact that you won’t just go out and write should be a sign to you that you’re going to drop it in a week, even less. Don’t waste your time.

Dude, I have written more than a hundred poems now. Didn't you read the original post?
