Taste, Middling Mediocre

Words that do not speak to me
       Fine poetry may very well be

     My taste, middling mediocre
       No literary bona fides
     ~ This wild card's a joker

Everyone has their own unique style; some hide in words while others just speak. Celebrate your uniqueness!

Wow, I might have overreacted! LOL! I'll take the job offer...but there's a caveat. Cheerio G.W.!...ab

You've proven yourself realistic, profound, artistic, clever and funny. If others say otherwise, then I'm their adversary. Saluti Gershon!...ab

Anselmo, I'm offering you a job, perhaps a career: Your task, to salivate and slobber over every single stupid line of poetry I write. No exceptions. Your salary - Glory, Glory, Glory, as the Contest Sponsors write. I await your decision. ~ Not holding my breath, gw

I love this, gw. Going straight to my FAVES. I can relate. OTOH, I don't think your tastes are mediocre; after all, aren't you a graduate of Dartmouth????? No mediocre there!

Gosh, thanks for the FAVE, Milt. Deeply appreciated... As for Dartmouth, that was five decades ago; it was soon forgotten (and now is long-forgotten). Thanks again, gw
