Hello, I found this site after searching "Poetry Forum" on google because my main Creative Writing site is down for the moment. Taking a look around the site, I'm not quite sure if I'll be welcome here/if I'll be looking for much critique. A lot of you seem to enjoy abab/aabb rhyme scheme poetry which I find distasteful and boring. I'm not sure about your take on Free-verse, which is what I write, but eh.

Also, I wasn't trying to insult by saying I dislike rhyming poetry, just merely stating my opinion that structured poetry has lost a lot of its merit.

Welcome to the forum free verse is as welcome here as formal poetry in depth critique is generally reserved for the critique section of the forum posts to the main boards will get a lighter level of response.

Great title to your introduction.
