Lucas Lejeune : part four

What do you find most difficult about writing poetry?

Writing poetry is easy since everything became poetry. But writing good poetry, whether it be purely conceptual or deeply lyrical, is very difficult. Honestly, I still don't understand how poetry really works. I'm not sure about what makes a good poem, it might entirely be its readership for all I know. Nevertheless, I think a good poem is often smart, ambiguous, radical, funny, subversive and/or musical. Sometimes everything at once. Most importantly, good poetry should display multiple layers of meaning.
