: Pullitzers or Fitzers by Sankey

Is here* a place of encouragement

For amateur writers and poets?

Or the epitome or depths

Of discouragement

From "would be" professionals

And "know-it's"


Do many drown

In fantasy and fiction?

Pooh pooh those who

Are just "themselves?"

Why should there be such

An addiction?

To put plain old "truth"

On the shelves.


Not all of us look for Pullitzers,

We mainly just do it

For fun.

We write as we are 'cos

It fits us,

Not pretending to be

The "Great One."


There are those who succeed

With the numbers,

Yet others are so sharp

With words.

Why should we all be forced

to lumber?

To fictionalize self

Is absurd.

Author Notes
Sometimes it just gets a bit frustrating around here will all the wannabes. Thanks to a dear friend in here, perhaps now passed on, for the idea for this poem.
Sadly another Fanart pic has disappeared.
