Natural-sounding speech is the key. Even though Shakespeare thee'd and thou'd all over the shop, you can still fit it into normal speaking patterns and that ought to be the goal for most poets. If it's artificial, it tends to make people laugh. Good if you're a comedian, bad if you're talking about your dead dog.
