Another Rant from sankey.
Rants, Raves and Tributes
:
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.
