Should poets have a union and pay union dues?

[busker]

Writers aren't known for having money.

Nobody has the money, until the enforcer shows up

“You wrote: “do the crime, do the time” on Truth Social yesterday. That’s a rhyme and you haven’t paid your union dues.”
“Ok, ok, I don’t have a dime, but I promise never to rhyme.”
