Okay I have been thinking about this all day and I am going to try to give the best possible answer I can. There are many different approaches to writing poetry. However I don't believe you should stick to one method. You should really experiment and experiment and experiment until you find a style that fits you. Read as much as you can but don't just stick to the classics. Read poets you aren't familiar with and see what you like. Perhaps you can get some inspiration from a poet you have never thought of before. What poets do you like by the way, pablo? Also you don't need a lot of fancy words in a poem. Simple words can just be as effective as complex words. Anywho, I think you should check out open mics and poetry slams to see other people write about. Perhaps something someone else said can inspire you. That is all I have to say for now. Feel free to ask questions.
Thanks for your response! I don't actually have that deep a knowledge in poets/poetry at least in the present, Byrons and Shakepseares aside. I've seen some performances of spoken word that I loved, and recently read some Frank O'Hara as _refugee_ recommended. O'Hara was on point with the style that I was looking for, similar to the way Kurt Vonnegut would write, a disregard to the excess and convolution that might come with the traditional standards of "quality" writing. I'll take any suggestions you can give me but I will absolutely keep digging in and reading as much as i can :) thanks again!
