here's the thing.....
no one has chained
you to the chair,
put your head
in a vice,
glued your eyes open,
turned on the computer
and is forcing you
to read this poem.....
or indeed any one elses
work either.....
if you don't like my work ....move on
if you find everybodies
work sub par.....
consider this revealation
it might be you....
not the forum.....
that has an issue...
words and the artistic placement of them.....
is or at least should be an activity open to all.
not just the elite....

i am of the... live and let live,
school of writing.....
we all start writing,
from the bottom step.....
and we all have posted work
that may have been roughly
crafted....
indeed i have and on ocassion it has trended......
whilst the work i spend time
and love crafting gets a smattering of reads....that's
a poet's lot.....
or at least this poet.
and we all know....
that no matter
which site we post our work....
there are issues
we live in an imperfect world.....
so let's be kind and generous
even when giving constructive cristicism.....
heh!
just a venting.......
no offense intended.
