"Your opinion on getting published"

There are publishers who'll take on poetry, but they're not wandering the internet looking for people because there are far, far too many poets already flooding their in-trays with submissions and begging to be published.  Poetry is not a profitable genre, so most publishing houses will only take on one title per year, maybe two.  That's a lot of poets competing for very few spots, so you have to be outstanding AND proactive to get your work seen by them.  Why would they go looking for more work when they have far too much on their plates already?  Thinking you'll be "discovered" is fairly idealistic. 

If you're confident about your work, submit a sample to publishers and then prepare for many, many rejection slips -- not necessarily because your writing isn't worth publishing, but more likely because they've already filled their quota (probably for the next five years).  If you do get accepted, you'd better have 200-300 publication-quality poems ready, because the publisher will whittle those down to 60-100 and publishers like to have a lot of choice.  Also, publication credits in magazines and such will go a long way toward getting you credibility as a writer.  Publishers want people with a bit of a track record so that their job of marketing is a whole lot easier.

Good luck, but you can have all the talent in the world and nobody's going to knock your door down begging to sign you up.
