I don't know why poetry isn't listed in genres? Maybe it should be.
Yes, I am a marvelous poet along with all my other lame talents.

I have a poem I wrote posted on the third page of my web site (not my blog)

there might be cobwebs on the link, but there is a link to both my website and blog on the bottom of each post.

(yes that was a shameless plug)

Tut-tut. You should not call writing poetry a lame talent...there's some mighty fine limmericks out there and some beautiful prose too!   Yes

Congrats for taking charge of your own promotion!  Thumbs Up

Raballard, Poetry isn't listed because very few agents represent it. There just isn't any money in it. Sorry.

Sell your poetry in the smaller markets.

Look at duotrope.com--it's my home away from querytracker. Be sure to sign up so you can use the submission tracker. (Shameless plug of my own wink2)
