Can I use some one else's poetry legally by publishing their name with the poem?
You could if they are unpublished and you have the permission to use them. If at all they've been published anywhere you can't put them up here...
HP is a place for your own work why do you want to add someone elses?
Republishing someone else's writing without their permission (even if you list their name) is most often a violation of the original author's copyrights.
You can't publish it here, even if write their name. To publish it on your blog, ethically you need to get the writer's permission in writing, and still give credit to author. Usually if you ask them most of them will agree.
Legally you need the permission of the author to reproduce either in total or in part their poem or writing, and you must give an acknoledgement of their authorship.
not to sure about this but best to check with the author in case they decide to take legal action against you
