I own several books by María Victoria Atencia. They are part of my research library, my personal collection in my own field. I have taught poems by her in class, put her on the reading list. Yet I have never written about her work, simply because I never had an idea about her that was worth developing into an article. This doesn't reflect any lack of interest in her work, any lack of respect for her work or her person (I met her once at MLA).
There are other poets in this category too. What you write should be a fraction of all the things you know about.
