Krishna

I joined the Cafe on April 14th, 2008.

I've always liked the slick interface of Writer's cafe, it's poetry brought to the masses indeed. There are a lot of supportive people in this community, which makes it a pretty safe place for a poet to play around. If you look hard enough, there are plenty of people who probably write like you, which is a bonus.

I try to write every day, and while I don't post on here that often, every now and then I like to encourage new writers and read the works of some of my favorites on here. I hope you find this place, as peaceful and inspirational as I do. All the best,

Krishna


Some words that would describe the schools that have influenced me the most are:

Metaphysical (e.g. John Donne)
Confessional (e.g. Plath)
Mystical (e.g. Aurobindo's Savitri)
Surrealism
Symbolism
Romantic (e.g. Shelley)
Women poets in particular (e.g. Restoration poets - Aphra Behn)
