Here Is the Poem With "BIG" words I Was Talking About/I Live In the City Where Dichotomies Exist
So this was the poem that a commenter said had too many big words, but in my opinion, I think there were just two. I wanted to share this with you all because of my swell previous to this, where I asked the question, should we leave out the big words when it comes to poetry? And I thank all of you for your responses because it helps me to come to the conclusion that it's all about the flavor that we're trying to achieve

Hi. My name is Natasha Noel. I wanted to tell you that was a beautiful poem. I love it. And as far as big words go, it's inspiring to me. I feel as if when I write, I tend to use the same words over and over because my vocabulary is so small. And I've never been the craziest thing is I've never been this English scholar or literary scholar. I can't even talk, much less anything else

It'll give you the language to use. And I mean anything. It could be a poem, it could be from a book, it could be from a movie, something. But just words that you do know and words that you don't know. But it's a little deeper than that. I've been reading a lot of poetry guides. Those help as well too. There's a book on Amazon called The Practicing Poet, and I think it's a very good book to have
