An enfant terrible is a young 'genius' who is often unorthodox, innovative or avant-garde in his field.
A poète maudit is a misunderstood poet living a life outside or against society, often abusing substances which results in an early death.
I'm too old to be an enfant terrible and still too alive to be a poète maudit. Plus I don't write poetry.
Godammit.
Maybe just stick to what is written on my business card.
