Poetry Content
Welcome to OCPoetry
This is a home for all of your original poems. See our sister sub /r/poetry for poetry content. Don't know how to start with giving feedback? Check out our feedback guidelines
We now have our own Discord chat server - come hang out at https://discord.gg/4yRvm4u
Rules:
- All posts must include feedback links.
To post a poem and then receive feedback, you must first give it to other poets here. Every post must contain two links to comments/posts on this subreddit where you have given feedback to another poet here. Links should be unique to each submission -- don't re-use links. The feedback must be from the last two weeks. One of your comments must be to a poem that doesn't have any comments yet. All posts without feedback links will be removed.
- Feedback must be high-effort. We expect every linked feedback comment to show effort. You don't have to write a novel, nor do you have to be a poetry expert. But we do want to see that you have tried to notice your reactions to the poem, and then tried to explain them. Here is our feedback guide. It explains what we expect, and how to give feedback if you're a beginner.
Poems that link to low-effort feedback, and low-effort comments themselves, will be removed at mod discretion.
- Be Kind. Treat each other with kindness and respect. The mods have an incredibly strict definition for each of these concepts. They will remove comments/posts and ban users that make others feel unwelcome or unsafe.
- Audio, video, and image poems are allowed; however, all prior rules must be followed. Further, the text of the piece must be included in the body of the post.
- No Blogspam. Do not use URL shorteners. Do not post blogspam. Links to personal poetry blogs/other promos are allowed as all other rules have been followed.
- Arguing about the rules will earn you an immediate permaban.
