poetry is supposed to be something for everyone young, old democrat, republican punctuation or not it is something to be encouraged even if their first poem is a stumbling mess about a ladybug or some such thing with no real direction and the lack of punctuation it is a poem and that should be enough
It's probably not my place to say this, but if you're a new poet getting a lot of **** on this site, keep going. It's the only way to get better, and we need more poets.
