This is brilliance, artistic and clever, i just love every line: i think i should make a line too for the kind of ramblings i do: maybe riddle of poets.? What do you think? Pleasure always reading your work: this is a fave for me

Hope no one invents a place where all poets congregate... Oh wait haha :) some great ones here! I'll go for a clever clog of poets - yours are all so true! Erm a lens of poets? My favourite is your inspiration of poets. Enjoyed!

Woah, this is a very creativity written piece & with so many thought-provoking ideas, perfectly describing the essence of poets and their whimsical world.. That ending really expresses it all.. Sometimes, it brings certain sort of trouble when feelings are poured onto the paper & thus, results in a dilemma..emotions aren't easy to deal with.. I love the thought of this poem, very profound!

Thank you, to be honest it started off as a joke write, just messing about, but I too thought it was quite profound for us poets and telling with melancholy and suffering, thanks for reading Hiya
