I find your poem great and has a rhyme like a song. Your words transport us in a different world with great use of figurative language and conveys a really interesting message. Good job!

This work has reached the exceptional level

This borders on brilliance. It truly satisfies every requirement sought by the contest rules. It also flows with a delightful rhythm. And lastly, it entertained this poor reader's simple mind. I guess the greatest compliment I can offer is;' I wish I was good enough to write something this good.'

A very nice entry for the oh, you are....are you? writing prompt. Good description of what it's like when a writer's muse takes hold and starts putting an idea on paper. thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.

In the words of Morrissey: "I didn't know that you wrote poetry; I didn't that you wrote such bloody awful poetry." Except this is only awful in the head of the writer, actually it is good; bloody good. Thanks for sharing.

This was terrific. With each stanza you capture the essence of the writer's journey. You share the fearless exploration of ideas to the mastery of our craft! I thought your own talent as a poet shined in this enjoyable poem! Well done.

This is very funny! I love the contradictory phrases told with such elegance that highlights the humor in them:
Crafting a world of ineptitude
cacophony of errant choices
I think this is extremely well written and deserving of a six-star rating...if only it wasn't Saturday night and mine have all taken flight.
Best of luck in the contest. I suspect this entry will do very well.
Julie

I love the writing about a poet you are addressing seemingly at me, but I won't answer you! But you eloquently have written this so well, with all the vim, verve and articulate language of the poet, well done, blessings Roy
