Occupation

I’m not a poet
I’m not even a writer
I’m just another word-dreamer

    Updated myself on your latest posts and yes this one is crisp. Can’t say I liked Acme much…somehow it starts well but seems to fizzle out wierdly in the middle. The Bureau is nice:) would like to see it continue. Sentinel Diaires sounds frank and personal.I really liked the piece for itself though I do not know what has gone behind it. Take care:)

    Just another word-dreamer, eh?

    *smiling at you so very nicely*

    p.s. I’m back and I haven’t made up my mind about the new look yet… 😉

    You know this little verse is actually noted in my dairy of fav poems – this was long long back, when I still thought Caferati had hope and hadn’t the faintest clue who you were or where Mottled Memories was!
    As Aran said above, loved it then, and love it now!

    PS No no wasn’t offended that you were amused, just curious 🙂 Am known for asking too many questions, specially “why”…

    Aran: I’m glad!

    Jai: *smiles* thanks man!

    Lc: Hey…thanks for the frank feedback. Appreciate it very much. Acme, ye, I was trying something different there. Have mixed feelings about it myself. Bureau, lets see, perhaps I’ll.

    Extempore: Oh you are back! Great! A lot of catching up to do then. I can wait.

    Geets: Wow! You actually wrote this down! I’m honored, really. Thank you.

    But what fine dreams you have…

    I like that. It reminds me a litle of sideways, which I just watched yesterday. after he gets his novel rejected by the last little known independent publisher, he gets really down, and says that he’s not a writer.

    I guess until we’re published, we’re not truly writers.

    That’s how I feel. I’m not a poet … I’ve written some poetry, but I’m not published.

    Not “just”
    The dream you spin lift others, too. 🙂
    I recall when someone made fun of my occupation on my other blog (http://green-eyedlady.blogspot.com). I described my occupation as “dreamer” in my profile.

    Mermaid: *smiles* thank you…

    Indigo: lovely film that…I really liked the writer’s character myself…I don’t know about the publishing part though…you don’t have to publish to call yourself a poet…publishing just gives the necessary confidence…

    SilverMoon: *grins* I know…ah we dreamers are never taken seriously by the world *winks*

    I like your work, Anil. I rated few of your poems as favorites on Caferati board. Glad to trip here on your personal space. 🙂
