link me some good contemporary poets in english. no memes. i already know the best poets in my language (i found their obscure blogs by chance, and it's basically a network where everyone knows/has read each other) but i haven't found anything in english yet, since you fucks only talk about IJ and rupi kaur
>the author's time period is more important than their work
Fuck off with this identity politics bullshit
Anne Carson
Bloom thinks she is a genius

You see, this is why I have to keep coming to /lit/. I must have made threads with the same premise as OP's half a dozen times, and still didn't get a good answer. But finally I've found someone interesting to read, who fits the bill of what I'm looking for more or less perfectly - just because of a throwaway, eight-word post.
How else would I have found out about her?
If you can actually recommend another way, how else would I have found that other way.

You could have just spent a few minutes googling instead of browsing this shit website for the one or two useful posts a day

OP here, i should specify that i opened this thread because experimental poets don't sell books, don't appeal to the public and aren't googlable

You want me to just wade through this shit?

Yeah, you need to link us into this, before we try helping you.
>>9034729
So it can be polluted by meme sprouting poltards?

This board is not active enough for that. And I'm sure you can link us to just the beginnings of a thread so that dedicated people can work their way on from there. The same 'accidental' way you found it.

>i already know the best poets in my language
what language?.
i suppose you know Heiko Julian, Cicero, Roggenbuck ....
you should post the link. not everybody is a meme addict here.
>>9035006
we are getting close guys, but i need poets who actually read
no memes? what does that mean? good poets, but unpopular? or do you mean "poets that don't get shitposted in /lit/?"
do you really equate the worth of a writer by whether they have one or two autistic fans? jesus christ, get the fuck out of here.
