what credentials to you to write?
This question occured to me, because a certain person has been making a lot of noise about lack of credentials, thinking that it is perfectly valid to write with just a heart, saying nothing about poetry or the tools of poetry.
Think about it.
What credentials does it take?
For one, none. The same stupid reasons you have can be applied to the other side. However, but post your poems, they are no longer yours, they are now the customers. Some people leave asshole comments, more people write asshole poetry. Only the very dumb, make a lot of noise about "credentials" and about the fact that their writing is untouchable.
Lesson one, a rhyme at the end of the line is a nice start, but just because you can do that doesn't mean that it is poetry.
This is no reason for you to open a thread and call it an Academy. Shows a lack of knowledge of definations.
