Please Critique My Write - Why I Refuse Such Requests

Please Critique My Write By Elton Camp There’s a request from which I intend to shrink “I want you to tell me what you really think” It may seem to ask your honest opinion to tell But unless it’s praise they’ll be as mad as hell Although I’ve gotten pulled into this trap before That’s certainly not going to happen any more Even if the write is dull, error-filled and trite What they want to hear is your endless delight Even the slightest criticism will drive them wild It’s almost as if you had just slapped their child And whether it’s a stranger or some friend, Know that you’ll never hear from them again But you must expect them to publicly criticize And say you are presumptuous, mean and tell lies But, to your advantage that actually may work For you’ll never again have to deal with that jerk
