In my writing poetry class, I have written 9 poems
so far that have had to be turned in.
Of the nine poems, only one could be considered
light-hearted, happy, or humorous.
Another one could maybe be considered humorous,
but probably not light-hearted.
That means that 77.7% of my major poems
so far have been about....sad things.
sad situations, or people...
some personal, some fictional.
But seriously....I think I am beginning to understand
the stereotype of poets wearing all black.
And as far as my non-poem life goes....
I generally feel pretty great about it.

Glad that your sad poem ratio is not the same as life. Maybe poets wear black because black is slimming. Hmmmm....food for thought.
