Etymology
The word poetizer comes from poet ('a writer of verse') plus the endings -ize ('to make') and -er ('one who does'), so it means someone who 'makes' themselves a poet. A helpful way to remember it is that people often use poetizer in a rude way for someone who is pretending to be a poet or who writes bad poetry.
