The only bad part about this, is that I'm not entirely sure which poems to pick for my portfolio in addition to these ones. For the other two poems, I'm unsure what to do. On the one hand, there are still poems that I'm unsure about, and could stand some revision. The down side to choosing these: I have no audience to give me solid critiques or guidance. Then there are poems that I'm very happy with, but because they already seem to be pretty near finished, I hesitate to use them in my portfolio because any changes would be pretty minor.
Do any of you guys have suggestions? Should I go for mediocre poems and experiment with making them better, or go with poems I'm more confident with, risking ruining the finished feel with further revisions?
What are you guys thinking for your own portfolios?
I am in a similar situation as you. Im finding that a lot of my pieces ive done are cliche relative to eachother and some seem to lack much depth. Ive started some peices from scratch and used parts and ideas of my Muse writes and found that to be quite successful.
