Poets please

Poets please
In my experience of poetry...
across the Internet...
I find a poem just 15 to 20 lines
is read most...
also with a sexy connotation mostly...

else poetry is en route
to the tunnel of time...
where no lights shine...
yes now, no more ...

poetry is becoming obscure...
that is very much sure
poets ought to endure...

Style / type:

Most poetry places ask for poetry of only 20 lines max, I suppose if you can't get the point across in those lines then you nee more practice.
The poems over that length need more flowery talk and a story that needs to be told, Take care young Bard, Yours Ian.T

There are a million reasons to believe in yourself,
So find more reasons to believe in others..

I tend to prattle on lately but I know what you mean sometimes its the small poems that have the most impact, but I will say the most memorable poems for me have not had a sexual connotation, maybe your a bit of a voyeur LOL joking ;)
