The Potd Critic

The Poetry Critic

We have ourselves a critic on poem of the day
Like being a good parent, it’s not quite his forte
I think what we’re seeing is a little Vulcan blood
His words are illogical and they drag through the mud

Some call him a king as they walk hand in hand
They should start reading the lyrics of his little boy band
He preaches forgiveness but falls a bit short
All I keep hearing is his cutting retort

What I can't understand is why come back to do the same thing over and over again, make a nasty comment and then remove it, bully and belittle and then try and look like he is the victim. is it 6 or 7 accounts I've lost count. My poetry may not be to his taste but one thing for sure, at times my poetry is REAL FUN and i will never change! hugs Jan xx

They do this here on the internet because they are small and are of little significance in the real world.

Thanks Tania! I’m sure there are a few who can relate to this one.

No one in PS sits on a throne unless it's a toilet. We can talk to Jan about that kind of poetry. lol Just exactly what is 'real poetry?' When any of us writes a couplet, a Haiku, or an epic, that poet considers it 'Real Poetry,' whether anyone else thinks it is or not. Being judgmental is not what Poetry Soup advocates. Your lines are exactly what my poem, 'Purple Reign' brings into focus.

I can think of one or two who should be flushed down a toilet.
