The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Still.............

still the sad site for sad censored people I see

still a site for mindless and glib poetry

still the formulations of J Rhyme numb and co

still the fatuous minds without a dictionary

or a thesaurus for that matter

still the same awkward attempts at self entertainment

and the unequaled, lets pat each other on the back   

still the sad and sorry farcical face of poetry

with the glib lip service you pay

still the oh so premium membership

still your tweadle de and twoddle dumb

you wonder why

all the good poets

left

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Oh lighten up Batman (inside joke folks) Callum Reece appears to be simply expressing Callum Reece's opinion. I can actually identify with the above. It makes sense to me. I often feel that way in this world of poetry. You know, it's that feeling that your words will never make a difference with anyone apparently. So why persue it? Sometimes it feels so pointless to me. A good write Callum Reece. At least it was identifiable to me. Best Wishes Always, Wild Bill (theKidster)
