You go to a movie theater and when everyone is inside enjoying the movie, you put your poem on their windshield.
Important: Use the wiper to make sure it stays in place.

you establish a reputation as a poet the same way you establish a reputation as a rock-band: work. start by finding out about writers groups local to you. go along to their meetings. show your poems and discuss them, read other people's poems and think about things they can do which you haven't mastered yet. when you have a group of poets you are comfortable with, organise poetry readings at local clubs or drinking places. university campuses and leisure centres are also useful. reading aloud to an unsympathetic audience is the best training you can get. doing your own bookings, accounts, and publicity will also teach you more about poetry than you realise. if you can get involved with any local arts festivals - either performing or administering - this is also first class experience. submit your poetry to poetry websites (ones where the poems get discusses:- yahoo! is no good for this) and try to get published in local magazines (and then national ones when you have enough reputation). it takes a long time to make a name for yourself, but it can be done.

Check out the local poetry groups in your area.My son joined a group called "The New October" poets in our City and it catapulted him into performing across the country.He is what is known as a slam poet and performs free style so this is not reciting written poetry.Having said that he has been asked many times to write them for display.He now does poetry workshops in schools and incorporates his poems in plays.Get yourself out there and check out whats on offer.I am sure your poetry will be welcome.Good luck.

thanks for putting in the "asked by bogz". Seriously, i don't think ANYONE would know if you didn't put it up there. It's not like your being redundant anyways. As for getting poetry noticed, perhaps if it was any good, but that's just me

Do what makes you happy and let fame look after itself.
Private poetry clubs literary societies. Library or university Depts should have addresses......

In this lifetime..tatoo it on your body and pass yourself off as modern art...then either sneak naked into an art gallery..or streak across the pitch at a high profile sports event.
Seriously..few poets are "noticed" in their own lifetime.
Good luck to you.

As a poem only needs to be read by one person, just write a poem to that person.
