Ci sono poeti che non saranno mai letti. I motivi che possono determinare questa mancata opportunità sono molteplici. Ad esempio, un poeta può decidere di non divulgare i propri scritti, facendo in tal modo della poesia un'esperienza privata e discreta.

Un altro, ancora, pur nutrendo il desiderio di pubblicare le proprie opere, può trovare soltanto l'indifferenza da parte dell'editoria.
