No way. Just because you're not familiar with the world doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I'm not a poetry expert or anything, but poetry is alive and well.

I think it's most popular in pop songs. But I still love me some Billy Collins.

I'm a big fan of Stephen Dunn, and of course the incomparable Pablo Neruda. (see Katya? I do like people!)
Also, slam poetry is big (although I'm not a fan.)

No, that only proves you like one person. (Unless we're also counting bob.)

I LOVE slam poetry and I'm not even ashamed to say it. Buddy Wakefield!
