@Fletch That’s exactly what a great poet writes about — his own inner struggles. My favorite poet is Hugh Prather. His poetry, beginning with I Touch the Earth, The Earth touches Me was the best. It was such a refreshing poetry of his inner struggles and questions about things. I was given the book at age 10, which I’m sure was simply because someone didn’t vet the material as appropriate for a10 y.o. But it was such a relief to find someone’s writings and questioning that I could relate too. I understood the underlying emotion, anger , joy, sadness, happiness, etc. Poetry’s funny. It either sells or it doesn’t until you’re dead. A coffee table book is such a cool thing to find in homes. They often are ice breakers for discussions. I have a friend that I’ve been suggesting she put together a coffee table photo book with stories. The photos are of her and her husband posing with typically older hats or wigs together. They’re hysterical, and are fun to look at.
Another option is a website that can either be affiliated with SWR. Simply title it Poetry or SWR Lyrics/Poetry, written by you. .
