anyone can write poetry, the key imo is imagery

this "poem" sucks because it has 0%

put a concrete image per line or every other, and you'll find your stuff hits harder and has a better sheen

also great for minimalist verse, you can write very short if you deploy imagery well

e.g. this is why classical Japanese haikus are still great today, note there are 2-3 images per in such a small amount of words

there's an imagistic density there that your mind can grapple onto, technical proficiency in service of creative execution

I was never a person into poetry but now that I’m playing Ghost of Tsushima I want read some Haikus

Do you have any recommendations where to start?
