A four year old is getting his poetry published
-
wot
-
Mhmm
-
i hate his poetry

Wtf. Writers everywhere put so much work in their books and a lot of times get rejected before the book is even finished. This four year old writes simple poems and they get published? What the actual f---.
-
I know, right?
-
Cuz it aint about the amount of work u put into it, its about what kind of work u put into it
-
Alot of writers put their soul into their stories and they still don't get published

Dreams cant die, an brick walls are there to block other people not u

As a person who has a passion for writing since I was that age...it bothers me. Yes, I have had 1 to 2 things published, but nothing to get me recognition. I mean, kudos to the kid, but it makes me think, is my writing good enough
-
REALLY!!!!! So, you’re telling me talented authors are being staged because of some four year old’s poetry!!!??? Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy the kid likes to write, but that’s just stupid to upstage authors, who are older and have more knowledge in the art of writing, for a four year old’s poetry. That’s just annoying. I’m an aspiring author who’s never had anything published, but still, why do that to plenty of incredible authors. And besides, it’s a four year old, how is his writing better than.....a twenty year old’s?

Here's some of his poetry.
Coming Home
“Take our gloves off
Take our shoes off
Put them where they’re supposed to go.
You take off your brave feeling
Because there’s nothing
to be scared of in the house”,
Baddies (talking about villains)
Everyone has love
Even baddies
Baddies love their baddie friends
Even very baddie ones
Policemen might arrest them
But they still have their love -
“I wasn’t tweeting the poems because they were so much like adult work – it was because they were so purely childlike,” said Clanchy.

I know, that’s very childlike, it’s not even that good of poetry. Now I don’t mean to be critical or mean, but still, why is his work being published when there’s a lot more better authors out there, who don’t still talk in baby voices!

Baddie publisher
