Poetry Writing Craft Resources

If you are just starting out as a poet or want to expand your skillset, these books and other resources are solid tools for your writing practice, and they specifically focus on poetry.

Books

 The Poet's Companion, Ordinary Genius, and In the Palm of Your Hand are classic texts for developing your poetry writing skills. Glitter in the Blood is more recent, and it has a little more of an edge, but it is a good read.
