Etymology

Noun

poetizer (plural poetizers)

An inferior poet.

• A. B. Douglas, The Spirit Lamp (page 22)

Browning and Tennyson cannot be set aside as poetasters, but surely they are often only poetizers. They have got some wretched philosophy they want to express, and we feel them straining after it.
