Poetic Injustice
Blatently honest (or just twisted?) contest entry22 total reviews
Comment from gypsycaravan
I think your description of a poet pretty much describes anyone who writes and the description is synonymous with dreamer. Good job with your fifty words and excellent choice of artwork.

Hi, fairydancer. This is a great description of writers. Your use of manic-obsessive-depressive-compulsive-thinker is great. I liked your ending that a poet uses fifty words when one will do, because 50 words was the contest limit. Excellent use of your 50 words! judiverse

You're so welcome. Now you have me wanting to do some research and writing about women's role in the 1950s. judi

I love the picture. I love the way you made fun of the fifty word limit.They have to limit the words because they would not have enough room on the internet. Great work

How true! And--how well expressed. Obsessing over every work, every line. Said in many words when one good one would do. You nailed it.

Ha ha! Thank you.
A psychological survey was carried out on 19th century writers and artists, and the results clearly showed that this creative group has a much larger rate of depression than the average population. I think this is because if creativity is not used positively, it goes negative ??
Thank you for your thoughtful review - Cally :)))
Comment from Treischel
Very cleverly written and blatantly true. Said so well about the painter and songwriter. Not so sure about that insufferably chatterbox part though! Good thoughts, dreamer.

Comment from sgalletti
Love this description of a poet, being one - a manic-obsessive, depressive - compulsive thinker, that is. Check the spelling of "analyzes" - I think for the verb you want a z vs. an s??? Best of luck! Hugs, Sue

I like your characterization of a poet as someone who never quite reaches his dreams. I have occasionally tried writing poetry, but I'm not good at it.

Comment from hager
To me this holds true to form with its "who over-analyses everything." You got to, because it is math...
It all has to add up as this piece does you chatterbox you, who has used this canvas quiet well. Saying in plain English what runs through a writers mind...
Great entry!.... Good luck in the thingamajig and Thanks for organizing this... I don't have those kind of skills and I seem to be what in horse racing terms is a 'chaser.'I can run fast, just give me the field... Thanks for providing the field...
This brought a smile to my face the first time I read it, and have done so many times... I like your style and technical ability, a lesson in learning...
Thanks once again for the opportunity... take care... williamhager

Comment from Rondeno
Nice definition. You may be a dreamer, but you're practical enough to explain the "stave-off" joke (some of us "got" it under our own steam).
