A potential addition would be "writing poetry without having the foggiest idea what poetry is". When reading some of the poems people put up for critique I often wonder if they've ever actually read any poetry: whether they've actually experienced good poetry and and whether they know what makes it good. Then I feel guilty and ashamed...

It's a mystery for sure.
It could be worse
