You Poetry Viewers

You poetry reviewers sitting high on your opinions, 

                  placing us on your literary skewers. 

                  Stuffing us like turkeys, with synonyms and antonyms ,

                  forbidding all cliche's .

                  You roast our images and tear us apart, 

                  then reject us by claiming "Your'e just not avant- garde."

                  How can you really judge another one's art,
              
                  when we open up our soul, to expose our heart?                .

                  Your words are harsh, and your critique vain.

                  You write sadistic views to bring others down in pain.                    

                  If we could have a glimpse inside your mind,

                  we would all be shocked to see you're literarily blind.

I don't know much but I know what I like. I like good satire.

I glad you enjoyed it. I wrote it because of a website that was brutal with their comments in other words they were snobs. They all believed they were the next Walt Whitman.
