    Hi, Im new here. Im still fairly new to the poetry world, so Id like to build my skills as much as I can. Heres my favorite work so far, any input you can give would be appreciated.

    Road Trip



    The engine’s burning

    The gas tank is yearning

    But nothing can stop my beast of steel

    So I hold fast to the wheel



    Putting it all behind me

    That city missing jubilee

    My ears to my headset

    Next stop is the sunset



    Forgetting my pain and sorrow

    Not caring what comes tomorrow

    It doesn’t matter now

    All the sadness, my wheels won’t allow



    With my foot pressed down firm

    I’m past the limit, the gauge confirms

    Free in the cool air

    Devoid of the city blare



    And so the beast takes control

    The only time I can feel whole

    When my world is full of ripping wind

    Euphoric in my favorite sin



    No one’s there to hear my voice

    But this was by my own choice

    No more drama, no more strife

    No one left to run my life



    It’s just me and the Horizon



    So let’s Ride

    If this it "just starting out", then I suspect you have a bright future writing poetry.
    That was a very nice piece.

    don't worry about building anything. the more you write, the more that neural net will build itself. just make sure you never force it, and it will grow quite naturally. you are definitely a poet, friend.
