Let Them Go

Those poetic,Prima Donna poets, who ignore 
you!
Oh, dear! They are here alright!
But you are insignificant, so they take their
arrogant flight.

How dare tthey not comment and read 
others all day?
Crushing Prima Donnas, hearts of mud 
and clay.
They will never see this poem, not this or 
on any of God’s days!

This ought to draw 'em out, lol. I've not quite figured out what makes folks comment sometimes and not others, because I can put out something I thought was pretty decent and get crickets, and then write something silly and get lots. Even the views is strange - two posted within minutes and one gets a lot of views, the other hardly any. Maybe this is jus part of the blue pill Matrix... But I do know about that honey/vinegar adage... And, ultimately, we write for ourselves. Have a blessed day!

Jeff..l. You excellent Poet. Don’t figure it out. Just write poetry. This is not Commentary Soup.it is Poetry Soup. You will be told, if you want to be read,you must read more? We have families, houses and other duties, am I wrong! Few make comments as long as you or I. One liners are common. Or...one word. I like to communicate in mine. And enjoy life. I will not sit around here for 12 hours, no way, just so I will be read.? I came here to write poetry, not be the Queen of Commenting. Like a Prom Queen?Too old for that. Please write more. Pangie xo
