Then one of my recent posts might interest you: we just showcased 100 Free Online Poems over at Gadfly Revolution, selected from a number of classic and up-and-coming authors.
Many of the sites linked to host more than one poem, so there's plenty of reading to be had.
gadflyrevolution.com/2008/12/100-free-online-poems/
We're planning a follow-up post to this in the future, so if you're a poet (or know someone who is), feel free to let us know about your poetry and where to find it, and maybe we'll include it in our next poetry showcase.

Monkey Business, by Travis Erickson
There are monkeys on Wall Street
They’re running the show
They’re ringing the bell
They’re ready to go
Oh look there’s a monkey named Ben Bernanke
He just gave 150 billion dollars to AIG!
These monkeys, I tell you, they’re pretty smart
They’ve transformed deception from just a crafty art
So now 80% of the world’s money
Is held by 10%, these men I call monkeys
Sitting right there is Henry Paulsen
That monkey should have listened to what Ron Paul said
They’re up to no good, these monkeys are evil
Or did you not know the Federal Income Tax was illegal?
These monkeys have bypassed our constitution
Now a 700 billion dollar blank check is the monkey solution
But what did you expect
To me it’s kind of funny
This is what happens when you let monkeys control your money
Monkeys in Congress
Monkeys on the board
Monkeys in the White House
Monkeys going to war
These monkeys have gotten out of control
They’re taxing the people and taking their homes
How long will we let this monkey business go?

I have long given up all my poetic illusions. Poetry is just too hard for me. I'm trying short-story writing... hopefully, I get lucky...

Love to read them, also enjoying the process of getting my own blog up and running. I have spent the last six years chronicling the journey into and out of addiction. The blog has become a catharsis of sorts.

My blog started out as a "poetry blog" with some of my original poems and links related to poetry/other poetry blogs...however, I realized there wasn't a big interest in those sorts of blogs so I revamped.
The poems that were posted can still be found on my blog and I'm planning on sharing more as time goes on. Feel free to check it out. -

Fun Blog. Hop e I can get some feed back on the good stuuff. Some sucks I was, well you know......
sammple soot dune memories hiding malignant truths
Exhaust sand dunes flow down sidewalks.
shopping cart pushers out on the streets...
not angels, not devils, not hip hop or echoes of be bop, nothing special just sad meandering people that can be good or bad. its warm inside.
Solo conversations in the shadows, television dreams cascade down memories of time that drips out of spoons, like turpentine in your eyes. the deaf walking of the still night hawks grasping at their necks, thrashing , night sweats in a dream,
and for that first 3 minutes you feel alive and refreshed until you realize your awake.
washing my face looking in the mirro a tired cliche
sip on a coffee get it 1/2 price vefore the korean lady gets in, and the waitress working two jobs understands because she can barely make the payments.
you walk by the headlines searching for change on your way to the Super Market., Blurred Newspaper headlines, checking for change, there is a war, there is mortgage crisis, look over the towards the dumpsters and see Maria dive in for old lettuce and cucumbers, she puts them in her car. Must be living in it cause its full of shit.
The dumpster is left unlocked by a good worker willing to break a rule so people can dive in and get some old food.
buy my oatmeal and walk back khome, set it on the counterr, and stare at the hole in the drywall alone. everyone i know is dead, and my children dont know where i live cuz they are better off without me.
I throw my coffee mug against the wall at what could have been. we all have our own private hells.
but the soot dunes keep moving and the bodies keep piling up. long drag on a bad cigarette

You might not call it a poetry blog, but Narcissus-X ( narcissus-x.blogspot.com/ ) posts often contain poetry. Yesterday the (fictional) Narcissus-X posted four thematically-connected (and possibly insane) Haiku. -
That was disappointing: I followed your link, and got this:

While my blog is mostly a blog, I do have a section that contains some of my poetry. Most of them are short and focus on personal feelings; no "Illiad" here, I'm afraid

I wouldn't call it a poetry blog, but I've written a couple of poems, here:
thecarelessclick.blogspot.com -
I have a handful of poems on my blog: leastlikelytoblog.wordpress.com/category/poetry/ The most recent one's my favorite.-
Since I've written another poem since my original post here, I guess I should clarify and say this one is my favorite: leastlikelytoblog.wordpress.com/2009/04/26/sorry-all-the-creativity-i-curre...
