Critics Poems

Critics Twist the Knife in - Deep

     Golly, gee willikers, gee whiz
     My punch lines have lost all their fizz ~
       Where has that fizz gone
       It’s missing since dawn ~
         Critics say:

My Critics

I shun criticism, sharp or kind
For my soul seeks not to be defined 
My art, my life - a sacred flame
Not meant for judgement, not for fame

Joy escapes when I share my heart,
For the world tears each piece apart 
Yet my spirit longs, it aches, it pleads for a whisper of worth, a balm for

Seagulls,
Carping, such dulls,
A peaceful smiling lulls.

Quit Blaming The Innocent Victims

Keep on blaming and cheating
It is annoying, and disgusting
You always have an excuse
You always want to amuse
Keep on criticizing
Keep on castigating
Put your conscience in the mirror
If you can find it. Check the corridor
To see if it is not running away from you
Pay all debts that are due and overdue
Put up
Or shut up
Slavery is over. Racist

Poetry Is a Well-Organized Speech

Poetry is a naturally simple speech
Poetry is a well-organized speech
It is the profound expression of the soul
The digital or verbal dialect of the heart
Poetry is a special piece of art
Poetry plays a major and vital role
In our society, in church and in school
Poetry rewrites the anxieties, the souvenirs
The nostalgia, the past memories and the tears

Critics Beware

Critics Beware!

Poets are vulnerable no less than anyone,
when fallen victim to outrageous critics.
As Shelley wrote,  critics' darts struck Keats,
who blindly,  cruelly, mocked 'Endymion.'

Lethal no less the heady potion  fame.
Some drowned, took poison, died paupers or insane. 

Yet poet-baiters must themselves take warning,
wrote Heine in his 'Winter Fairy Tale.'
Eternal lines, if barbed, outdo

When Critics Throw Bricks

When people love to criticize
Please do not stay there long
Quit that spot by being wise
Or else you may prove wrong

When your efforts are not lauded
Instead when they are attacked
Then, only agonies get added
Happiness can never be tracked

When only criticisms badly flow
And terrific opposition is there
To smartly exit, you must know
Or else you will suffer, dear

Yours

Look a little deeper if you must
Never be ashamed of challenging your thoughts.
We are our own worst critics -
A line I know and trust.
Hallow beating of a heart that never got the chance to love.
Eyes that feel so much but are attached to a system that is not hooked up. The only energy around drains

Value Yourself More Then Critics

it was time
spent my dime
on soup prime
try to rhyme
long hard climb

lyrics weak
critics seek
petty clique
black and bleak
tried turn cheek

A Poet Views, Critic Reviews

Fragrance of words I’m, who are you? 
Romance of lines brought in from blue, 
Make words dance in rhythm, 
Cut out noise in freedom,  
A poet asked: so, what’s your view? 

I wield a sword vibrant of hue, 
A species that poems review, 
A slayer called critic, 
I tick ye off, one tic,
I work

Furrocious

My cat’s become so critical
of the pieces that I write
he kneads to express his opinion
and he always thinks he’s right.

He twitches his ear-itation
if I don't write in Senryus.
If what I write displeases him
he’s under the bed for refuge.

He’s worse than many teachers -
his reviews are seldom neutered -
he pointedly wags that twitchy tail
or cat-calls disapproval.

Is It Art - the Critics On the Exhibition

The reviewers considered his latest exhibition:
They said it was cutting edge
They said it defies all perception
The exploration of the negative spaces challenges the mind
Some said mind blowing
Some said life changing
The still life quality was shattering
Wonderful and interesting use of the media
At times parts seemed to be borrowed from the impressionists
but with great discretion and reflecting

How I Respond To Critics

If someone mocked my poetry, I will maintain silence,
Not a word I will write in response
I am not answerable to my critic!

Comments of critics are visible to all
With their comments they tarnish their own image

Some people are egoistic, negative and critical. 
That's the way God has made them, I cannot change them.
But my happiness is
