How can I start a Poetry Club in my school?

[Fyrebyrd]

1.) How do I, a guy, convince people that poetry is perfectly awesome.

2.) What can I use to convince people to join (as in a competition)?

3.) Outside of coordinating entry into competition, what else could we do? Would discussion be that appealing to other people?

Thanks!
I mean is there a notable poetry contest for high school students?

I would go to an English teacher, and get their thoughts. Bring the idea up to friends you trust, so you have encouragement along the way. After you have some good ideas and a plan, present it to the principal.

I think if enough PPL wrote enough poems eventually a good one should come about .

tell your principle about you idea. if he says yess.
make pretty signs and stuff about the poetry comp.
that would be cool.
