Question: Like my Self-Satirical Poem!?!?!?
I wrote this poem in response to all the gloomy and depressing poetry that seems to be posted here, and if anyone has read my poetry, they would know i fall into that trap as well, so i'ts really self-satire :)



Ok this is going to be a light hearted writing
To prove that I don’t only write sad pieces
It’s as if I’m walking and going bird sighting
The flowers make me break out into sneezes

This poem certainly won’t turn lame and cliché
Perhaps it was the happy influence, or so I say
but if someone can write a well thought out line
then maybe it can become respectable and fine

This is the third and final stanza I would think
All of my poetry seems to follow this route
If they didn’t then I know they would sink
And I would be chastised or receive the bootWww@QuestionHome@Com

Well, I thought it was absolutely brilliant, and I enjoyed it immensely! I don't know what he is complaining about, it brightened the day!. It is nice to have a little ditty to read and giggle to, thank you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The rhyming is inconsistent!. Completely whelming!.

There is absolutely no valid reason for writing one verse with a different rhyming scheme to the other two!. (Certainly not in a three verse poem!.) also, your sentence structure is artificial and forced - totally amateurish!.

Condemned by your own words!. One has only got to read your rants about other people's poetry, where you berate them for not following 'structure' (see your comments on Moanika's and Just Me's poems), then you say you're not aware that there are rules of structure in writing poety!? Not only can I not take you seriously as a (ahem) 'poet', I now can't take you seriously as a person either!. What drugs are you on, boy!?

And you needn't worry - NOBODY will ever take your poetry seriously!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
