Rejection and Judgment...
Man Aren't They Sumthin'... ?!?

Judges of Art...  
Who APPARENTLY...  
Are... Oh SO SMART... !!!  
    
Those Whose Critique...  
Seems To... ME...  
To Be Part of Cliques...  
    
Or Clicks of *****... !!!  
And Wandering Lips... !!!  
    
From Chicks To These ******...  
Who Are In The Business...  
of Deciding Whose GREAT...    
And DESERVES... ACCLAIM... !!!  
    
So Who Are These People Anyway... ?!?  
    
A Breed of Strays...  
Who Get To DICTATE...  
Who People READ...  
And Who People SEE...    
On Their... TV's... !!!!?!!!!  
    
Now When You Meet These Crews...  
There's ALWAYS One or Two...  
Who AT FIRST Seem COOL... ?!?  
    
But If You're SHREWD...  
It's EASY To See...  
That They Tend To Move...  
    
Like... "Sneaky Ghouls"... !!!  
    
Shape Shifting Thinking...  
Is What They... CHOOSE...  
    
To Be Down With Those Giving...  
AWARDS And Positions...  
To... Artistic SINNERS... !?!  
    
Who Get To Say That...  
... They're WINNERS... !?!  
    
of... THIS And THAT...  
But Here's The SNAG... !!!  
    
What They... CLAIM...  
Is Because Their Name...  
Is One Who's GAINED...  
From Rubbing Shoulders...  
And Bending Like FOLDERS... !!!  
    
For Them To GET OVER... !!!  
    
... Artistic BUMPS... !!!
That Leave The Rest...    
...... STUMPED...... !!!  
    
Because We WON'T Run...  
With Artistic TRUMPS... !!!!!  
    
Who KEEP Art DUMB... !!!  
And Get LARGE SUMS...  
    
For REFUSING To Use...  
... Artistic Crews...  
    
Who When All's Said And Done...  
... DESERVE Payment... !!!  
    
Much MORE Than The CHUMPS...  
Who Should Be At CRUFTS... !!!!!  
    
With One Leg UP... !!!  
******* Like Dogs...    
YES On ALL FOURS... !!!  
Taking **** Fa Sure... !!!!!!!  
    
Artistic ******... !!!  
Whose ONLY Cause...  
And Tour De Force...  
    
Is To DENY Art...  
That ROARS From Shores... !!!!!  
    
And DECLARES WAR... !!!  
On Those Who Perform...  
ALL Sorts of... " ACTS "...  
To Get Themselves BACKED...  
By.... Artistic PACKS.... !!!!!!  
    
Well I REALLY Mean HACKS... !!!!!  
    
Which Is Why BIG VIRGE...  
DOESN'T Enter These SHAMS...

Who NEED To Get KNOCKED... !!!  
OFF of... That Spot...  
That They Say Makes Them TOP... !!!  
    
of Charts Where Their Path...  
Is Made CLEAR By SHARKS... !!!  
    
Who Give TOP MARKS...    
For Art That LACKS Heart...  
    
And DISMISSES The TRUTH...  
    
Artistic PRUDES...  
And Bourgeoise FOOLS... !!!  
    
Who Hide Behind Boards...  
Applause and AWARDS...

of Keeping Artistry RAW... !!!!!

Artistic... FRAUDS... !!!  
Who Get To JUDGE...  
As If Their... " little club "...  
Can DEFINE What's GREAT... ?!?

DIDN'T Make The Grade... !!!  
    
These People SHOULD...  
... Have To EXPLAIN...  
    
The Decisions They Make...  
In A Face To FACE... !!!  
    
Because These Words TODAY...  
Were Written To Say...  
    
What Makes THEM THE ONES...  
Who Can Sit And JUDGE...  
And PAVE The Way...  
For The Next Artist...  
To GAIN Some FAME...

That I'm SURE They'll Say...  
Are The Reasons WHY...
