I was just told that when it comes to poetry, "the simpler the better". Is there any truth to this?
Yes, that's why my favorite poems are all only one letter long. I think my all time favorite is probably "I" because it has such a simple shape.

wilt, slipping, banana peal,
the crazy story of Desdemona,
riding on her challet horse
dipping through the country side road
stopping to pick some flowers and smell
the sweet summer day
fragrance dancing with frivolous flight
the butterflys prance like angel dragons
the buds buzz buzz
the bugs on kudzu
the birds bellow peep
on spring time tree
around the river bend
the forrests coos
sweet lemon lime
stupid lazy river

I don't think it's about simplicity. I think it's more about using the right words to achieve exactly what must be said.
Take Ezra Pound. In only 2 or 3 lines he can create a clear and precise picture of what he's written.
my girlfriend loves another
she treats me like a brother
tyrone is her true lover
he hits me when I stutter

Only because poets like WCW exist. See red wheelbarrow
I searched this video and was very disappointed to find that it was a toy snake and not a real one

Yeah definitely. My own masterpiece is a poem without letters.
Skeletons, by Anon
Skeletons,
They have no need for guns,
Don't want to see the sun,
Made by adding E to bon,
Are always on the run.
Do they like Ellington?
The good Duke is no bum.
What are you Skeletons?
