I didn't think I could write until I got into my 20s and stumbled into it. School taught me not to like writing.

Seems like it hasn't gotten any better in the time since I went. I suspect it's gotten worse.

No matter what though poetry is one of things that always gives you something to learn. Learning free verse helps you with your formal poems. Formal poems help your free verse. Everything has value. People that arbitrarily restrict themselves really stunt themselves and miss out.

The secret of poetry is cruelty.--Jon Anderson
