Be Nice is an anaphora didactic verse on critiquing, an octastich in mixed meter with couplet rhyme, written in 51 words. Image by me, silhouette of Be Nice.
Be Nice Don’t be nasty, don’t be mean. Don’t use words, that are obscene. Don’t be obscure, please be concise. Don’t use words, that are not nice. Don’t stroke egos, like a phallus. Don’t use words, filled with malice. Don’t hurt feelings, when you write. Critiques are for helping, so keep it tight. By Josehf Lloyd Murchison
