All these rock'n'rollers propped up by publicists and the media with the honorific title of "poet":
how many times have you read or heard, 'Oh yeah, he/she's not just a singer-songwriter, he/she's a real poet.'

and see how how many days before they start screaming
"No, no! I'm not a poet, I'm a popstar! Gimme back my limo! Bring back my maid chauffeur bodyguard cook! where's my PA?!"
