Notes About The Poem

A reflection on Simon Cowells comments on the worst contestants on AGT

 

 

:)

Taylor Swift She Is Not

Rants do not make great songs
Rosanne Barr I am sorry to say
not so great in a thong
when you sell no tickets
you have no show

Unless you on the side streets of cali
among peepers and creepers
then ticket sales of two are no crime
if you over and above nineteen
invite the crowds to see the obscene

When the show is over and done
make sure the phones delete
the evidence of sins and desperate crumbs
if you have no voice
there is no musical lyric to rejoice

I completely agree with your statement, Arthur. Your Cinquain on the subject is truly exceptional and beautifully crafted.

Hi Arthur, You have penned a good poem on the topic. I like the show, it's good entertainment. Simon has gotten nicer over the years with his comments. Back in the day, he was harsh and downright mean. With being said I agree with Mystic. Have a great evening my friend—Alexis

Tragedy should not be rants, but emotions. Personally, I avoid such shows.

Fabulous poem I didn't see the show but I know Simon's comments can be caustic . I am of the opinion that we shouldn't praise people when they have little or no talent. I had to smile at the thought of Roseanne in a thong lol. Hugs Jan xx
