Hello, anonymous,

Good entry for the This is serious writing prompt contest. You chose a very serious topic and turned it to humor as the contest requires. Good job. Good luck in the contest.

I like the Gypsy theme :)

I think this is a good entry for the 'This is Serious' writing prompt.
This well rhymed, jaunty verse tells a clear story.
Well done and I wish you good luck with the contest.
Sharon

A very well-written poem about the psychic who takes your money and tell you all about the great future awaits you, but most of it are lies just to make you feel okay with the money she took from you.

9 Predicting the future.
10 For some worried folk
11 They think that I'm serious.
12 I'm actually a joke.
13 They pay me with cash.
14 OK
15 I speak very brash.
16 Although always lies.
17 I tell them I see.
18 You're future is bright.
19 Just listen to me
20 And all will be right.
21 I fake all these powers.
22 But surely you know.
23 I do this for hours.
24 And make lots of dough.
I am being very presumptuous and have no idea how you will accept this or even if you will like it.
Now you can correct this poem. But I don't know how to do it.
This is done with love not hate or envy.

A very interesting poetic reflection on 'being a psychic' - wonder if such powers really do exist - people continue to believe they do - thanks for sharing

I think this is the truth so many times with so many psychics. You have done a good job of portraying this while still sharing the value of a psychic's positive words.

This is well done and you actually figured out what the contest was all about. I found that writing prompt confusing the way it was written. I like your illustration. Nicely done.

I like the honesty. We all know that the psychic is basically a scam, but it does give some a sense of peace. And it is a source of income and we all love entrepreneurs. Fun read. Thanks for sharing.

Congratulations on this amusing piece. I've never in all my life had a psychic read my future... it's on my bucket list though! Next time I see one and have a bit of spare cash I'll give it a shot I think. Good luck with the competition!
