As a poet I affirm that writing poetry is gay but also posit that there’s a poetry horseshoe theory. I think for much of history poetry was the choice way for men to express themselves in a non-gay way, whereas the other side of the coin (the gay side) would be effusive yapping about feelings like a woman. Good poetry is masculine. And even bad poetry can be masculine. But effete poetry is always gay.
