The
Critic - Art and Poetry
(c)2014
Bob Atkinson
'tis always easier to criticize
than is to do it yourself
although in truth the latter
contains far more fun and mirth
my point lies somewhere in between
although in truth the latter
contains far more fun and mirth
my point lies somewhere in between
good and bad of poetry
adjustment for the mainstream
how we absorb ideas
adjustment for the mainstream
how we absorb ideas
to
see this in a different light
with
crystal covers on the lens
we
can, with open eyes
love writers with sharp pens
those
who look beyond the fluff
and
understand good meaning
divest
themselves of constraints
and
pursue a different dreaming
they
see a world with tearfulness
not
holding on to chains
which
produce establishments
that
grate and agitate
my
desire in this arena
carries
to all a simple message
don't
let the future be determined
by
past usage and direction
what
you see is fabricated
a
reality far from real
poo
pooing things that matter
holds
their only zeal
me,
I've grown accustomed
to
my meaning zipping by
heads
of those who look
only
at the surface side
doesn't
mean I'm disheartened
to
try is not hard at all
when
you feel compunction
to
rearrange it all
