How Does It Taste

Poetry is just like everything else………
Your reader will like it, or not like it
We all have a specific taste
we all have our own preference

I respect you too much,
to leave a comment at all,
if it's going to be rude or
disrespectful, or in poor taste

Soupville should always be
about respect,
Sometimes saying nothing
at all is simply respect .

This is so well-expressed, Alexis, that I think it should be adopted verbatim as the policy of Poetry Soup. Bravo! Warm wishes, Gershon
