Mocking My Poetry Contest

You mock my poetry without understanding or knowledge If you are God fearing let me say the book of Palms is poetry But of course you lack knowledge so, I forgive you Your words have become music to my ears, you have read my poetry I fear God over you so your words are empty to my ears My question to you is, why do you believe you are an expert at poetry That you can judge others work without understanding or knowledge I don’t mock you for not knowing what is good or bad poetry When you do this does it give you a feeling of power over others You are powerless when it comes to words unless you have knowledge But then again you are stuck in Content and will never get to the first page Normally I would have ignored your comment on my poem but, This is a Contest about you and people like you Those without Knowledge or the Understanding of Words Contest: Judge by a Jury of peers Sponsored By; Mark Koplin Date Created: 10/28/2020

Congratulations on your win. This is a "Wonderful" write. I love your line, "When you do this does it give you a feeling of power over others." Yes, and that is why they do it. It can be anyone about any subject, not just writers. It is apart of life. Enjoy your win and day writing away........
