Is it what I’m saying that seems to have people not relating to things that I’m writing…
me thinking I’m exciting the reading minds? Commenting on other peoples poems..skimming through mines…
but 432 views…and no comments from youse…
i mean geez…I'm not bending my knees…
begging for likes but at least…
the recognition…
not writing to please myself…or my mental health 
I just like to send the world my word wealth as I’m going through a poem writing recession…
just take a second…I’m just suggesting…read with comprehension…..
give a little attention….
my words are not written in transgression….
i’m just in a state of decompression….
pen to paper pressing….
words in aggression…
like a concession stand…
here’s another for the empty comment section again…Damn…

Most of my poems receive very few or no comments. I did take a look at your poems. Most of your past poems have 300, or more views, so your poems are being seen. Why people don’t comment, I don’t know, but don’t let the lack of comments discourage you. If I did that, I would stop writing - and that’s not going to happen.
