It seems at Passions there's not really a place where the more structurally inclined poets may go to have a more "general" enviroment that is specifically oriented enough that it is especially for Meter and Structure.
If one wishes to post a specially structured and styled poem, if it goes to Critical Analysis, it must live up to a Critique; if it goes to the Workshop, follow the lessons and practices there; if it goes to Open or the themed forums it may be enjoyed very much, but the structure may not be heeded as much as the poet wishes.
Do you think that Passions could somehow build a forum for these more metrical, structure-mindy poets, where they may go orienting more to metre and structure but in a more general enviroment? Is this an interest of many other poets?

Ess, perhaps Sanctuary is the place for you? Perhaps you can find the following and feedback you are looking for, in there.

I go this way, now that way wing
now try here, now there try to sing
inspired by manifold weathers
and yet uncertain of my way
where in flight to take my feathers
a settle make, a nest, and stay.
Maybe I'm best in the sky-land
Hovering over folk and fold
placed never in one place to stand
but live e'er in cloudbosoms' hold.
