Please stop doubting yourself, it's an issue I struggle with every day, I think you're a wonderful Poet and I think your clever and talented writer and maybe a little too humble. I am writing an epic I've been working on it for my mother for over 12yrs now, your worried about long poems? my epic is now over 1900 stanzas long.

I loved this musing on your writing though, you're poetic to your very core my humble friend

There is nothing wrong with self-reflection from time to time it can recentre oneself.

Don't ever question yourself Hannah though we all do from time to time. If in doubt read lots of poetry from different sources and sites. A lot will inspire one to be a better writer, but, by god, there is a huge amount of pretentious crap out there written by so called writers whos only talent seems to be to make their writings as incomprehensible as they can. You write, as I try, from the heart, don't ever stop. Alex.

I didn’t read the other comments. I just assume they’re all positive because that’s how we roll on this website. You’re fine. Bush poems are great. Where else am I going to learn about the culture.

Now this poem is good too, how in the world does anyone get better at anything without questioning their worth. It’s a dangerous game, don’t berate yourself but definitely push yourself. Challenge yourself.

Good going,
Tim
