About This Quote
Many people have a certain kind of gift that they can do just by thinking or by speaking. Some can sing or dance, others paint, and still others write. But those who really have a gift know what it feels like to have their gift validated. That’s why they write poetry.
In the poem “Tickle My Heart with Your Pen,” the writer is asking to be spurned as a poet as a reward for her gift. She wants to be made fun of and ridiculed, because that’s what she deserves for being able to capture the hearts of others with her words.
