Detailed explanation-1: -A magazine inspired by the 1936 Surrealist Exhibition in London.
Detailed explanation-2: -By definition, contemporary poetry is “a style of poetry that follows a specific series of traits and literary tools: inconsistent meter, variations upon standard rhyme.” Poets writing in this style allow their ink to place a unique sense of self upon the words, making every poet’s story special.
Detailed explanation-3: -Contemporary poetry is most often written in free verse (unrhymed lines). The lines follow the natural rhythms of the language and not the strict five stresses per line in iambic pentameter. Contemporary poetry is written in language that is accessible to the common reader.
Detailed explanation-4: -Regardless of style, some of the most common themes of contemporary poems are those of love, family, and death. Still, much of contemporary poetry focuses more on suggesting an idea or image than on outright stating it.
Detailed explanation-5: -Complexity, abundance of output, revolt against tradition, love of nature, pity for the poor and the suffering, disillusionment, loss of faith in religion, the metaphysical note, the romantic strain, the influence of music and other fine arts and new techniques are main trends of modern poetry.
