Your poems are really bad.
Your poems are really bad.
That wasn't very nice now, was it?
In point of fact, Robert's poetry has been very well-received in literary circles.
The poems may not be to your taste, but to say they are "bad" implies you are an expert in the field of poetry and there is something technically wrong with them. Are you?

Guys, this is no big deal. I gave him leeway in the creative writing forum there to show why and how my poetry was bad. To even give me pointers if he has poetry in his blood.
FIRST I CHOSE TO IGNORE THE REMARK , SINCE IT IS AN OPINION ONE IS FREE TO EXPRESS.
I chose not to take major offense and instead , sought to learn the true intent..
Now given the chance to dazzle us with far superior knowledge and even present his own poems, he can give some credence to his expertise in making such a harsh judgment of my poetry which is specifically written to deliver positive and ethical messages to the current lost masses in this nation.
Of course should he prove to be acting as you have just thought(with nothing but vindictive intentions), well,

That's really a disgusting thing to tell someone you don't know, in person. Bet you fully appreciate, and enjoy your brand of poetry...called "RAP"?
That's about the education level of our young people today. Unable to spell, read, or count, but they remember the crap called RAP.
I love to make Liberals Cry, and Whine.
So, this is for them.

I tried to be "funny" myself in here with a little joke poem, and was contacted by Tyr who very nicely explained the workings of his poetry forum. I apologized for not knowing and promised I'd never pull that stunt again.
I did, however, find out that Tyr is a hellova nice guy, and I think his poetry is damn good.

Tyr, I don't know why anyone would just post something to be mean, but I guess they do. Whenever I've read your poems, I've been impressed. Granted, as we've discussed, it's not my thing, not in the 'blood' as you so aptly put it.
Since I have no talent that way, I feel I'm not the best judge of how great or not poetry is, so I judge it solely on how I react to it. Same with art, I like something or I don't. As I've said, I've liked what I've read of yours.

THANKS MY FRIEND...
YOU UNDERSTOOD AND ACTED LIKE A MAN ABOUT IT. And I even thought your posT funny but rules are rules(SEE GUNNY'S POST HERE, I AGREE) .
A mark of great character in my book, BOTH ON YOU AND GUNNY!
I havent a clue what is going on with this but I have myself seen and read some truly terrible poetry yet never thought it right or prudent to send such a message to a stranger.
However, Fats is free to give me some pointers on his expertise in poetry and even post his own brilliant poetry there.
If I get only silence, well then you know-- what the conclusion will be.. the only one that makes sense..
I have not and never will criticized a man for shooting badly , if I can not shoot better and provably do so on demand.
This world has all kinds.... always something strange about a shot from out of the blue like that..
Maybe somebody doesnt like my views on muzzys, libs, trans- gays, perverts and expresses anger in an insult in regards to something that I hold dear-- which to me would point to a liberal or something else..
Regardless, he is free to reply..
EITHER HERE IN THE CAGE OR CIVILLY THERE IN THE CREATIVE WRITING FORUM, IF IT IS ABOUT WRITING POETRY AND NOT MORE INSULTS.-Tyr
