I don't think all poems need to be written in conversational language - those are often great poems but there should also be poems of incoherent bewilderment and muddled mystery.
Matthea HarveyPoems can't help but be personal. Mine are certainly an accurate blueprint of the things I think about, if not a record of my daily life.
Matthea HarveyI don't like basements, but definitely basements could be poems. Not fond of skin diseases, but again, there's a pattern. Probably anything could be a poem.
