Lol. Well I found it funny. I especially liked the misspelling of think. My fat fingers are constantly mistyping. I post from my phone so the keyboard is tiny. I always appreciate help unless they try to rewrite my story and turn it into theirs. Great piece. Gretchen

Your poem made me laugh before coffee, a difficult thing to do. You creatively stated writers block. Something we on Fanstory can relate too. The picture adds to the appeal of your words.

Well done. It is sometimes quite difficult to write such a poem with errors for the sake of humour. Autocorrect gets very upset as well. This fun piece bade me smile - and recognise your skill. Best wishes for your entry!

Haha. That's hysterical. I love the coupled artwork and chalkboard-like background feeling it gave. There's no denying you're a pro. Even with the intended mis-spelling and usage, you nailed it! Good luck in the contest.

As a non-poet, I found this delightful and fun.
While done in humor, and the mistakes are intentional, it is a good reminder that poetry takes a considerable amount of dedication and talent.
Good luck in the contest

This is very cute, but I actually love that someone tried to help you correct your "mistakes." They may have misunderstood your point, but at least they had good intention. I enjoyed your humor (and actually read the earlier version as well, where your verse on rhyme didn't rhyme. This is a fun approach to the prompt, and I enjoyed your rhymes. Good luck in the contest.

    Thanks Michelle. Eleri, who started the contest thought there was a possibility that it could be disqualified so I thought I better correct that part, and that was the best response that would still sound like I didn't know what I was doing. Lol... I have been dq'd for less than that in the past and it really is disappointing, so I thought I better not take a chance.

    Thanks for your very kind comments and as always you are so appreciated.

    Thank you. I understand why you were worried, as they did want the poem to rhyme. I'd hope they'd have more of a sense of humor than that, but I certainly wouldn't bet the house on that. I liked it both ways, but don't blame you for playing it safe.
