I don't think the creative writing industry has helped American poetry.

Summary

This quote suggests that the creative writing industry has had a negative impact on American poetry. It implies that the commercialization and professionalization of writing have hindered the development and quality of poetry in the country. The boost in creativity stemming from the industry is argued to be incapable of enhancing the art form, potentially due to commercial influences, an emphasis on marketability, or a shift towards conforming to trends instead of pursuing artistic innovation.
