    That’s a commodity/consumerist take on art.

    I write poetry because making art feeds my soul. I share my poetry because it feeds others, especially other poets.

    I don’t write poetry to sell it on Amazon.

      That’s cool, I’m glad you are making something you enjoy. The point stands that the average Joe doesn’t actually seek out poetry, be it man or machine-made, and will therefore be an exceptionally poor judge of a poems quality.
