Oh wow just saw the upvotes, thank you!!! :)

...and the tips. My goal for consistency is to post a new poem at least 4 times a week.

I'm also reading a lot of the poetry on here, there's a lot of good stuff !

In a sense yes, but it is not direct and can't be seen as begging... It's more like asking someone to check your work and give their opinion, a lot of people prefer this method and 7/10 times they will actually go and read it. Comments like this are fine, but don't let it sound desperate ;D

thank you for your kind response, that clears it up :)

Hey @xxsenpaixsamaxx! I've started an exquisite corpse poem https://steemit.com/poetry/@bennettitalia/steemit-collaborative-poetry-experiment
in an attempt to build community in the poetry section of Steemit, which needs two more lines in order to reach its goal (if reached, I will make and post a video of an overly dramatic reading in costume, with attributions to all contributors). Curation ends in 23 hours, if you feel moved to contribute a couple of lines to it. It's gotten pretty silly at this point, but it's fun :)
