Poem Title:
Poem
I tried to ignore you, but I miserably failed the test. So, I'm posting this to unburden it from my chest. It's in reply to your continual endeavor to protest against those of us who enjoy writing for contests. Why does it matter to you? Why are you obsessed with our friendly competition? Just give it a rest! You judge us and that's not worthy of being blessed. Maybe to God, your reproach should be confessed. I don't enter contests to be the Queen of Poetry Hill That's really contemptible ink you choose to spill, and your vinegary attitude is that of a pickle... a dill. Can you find amiable words to write with your quill? There are no cold poets here, but many feel your chill. I took umbrage when you called PS a 'selfish place.' That's simply not true, and it's totally not the case. There's never been a justifiable reason to debase us with what you wouldn't dare say face to face. You wrote of friendship, so why don't you embrace all poets, and do it with some semblance of grace? You wrote that we should all be helpful and kind. That's a bit hypocritical and it just blows my mind each time you post lines with your same old grind... contempt you have for contest poets you maligned. Your prods are noticed because no one here is blind to read what you write about us. You've been unkind. God blesses us when we treat each other as brothers, and that's the way you'd see us if I had my druthers. If you claim that we should be a blessing to each poet, then you should adjust your thinking, and you know it.
