Against Those Putting Us Down

There are those who are blasting Poetry Soup They say that the poems there are not very good Well if there are one hundred thousand or so poem on the site some of them are bound to be fine Some prefer free verse others rhyme There are so many who are writing poems including not only scholars and professors but also sanitation workers baseball players union members and doctors and attorneys Don't let the critics spoil your fun You are the creator of the verse - not them (and if you make a little cash out of it you deserve a goddam medal)
