Why do poeple critisize--
to only feel you with truth and lies..

Read my poems,observe my write--
all for me it's just fight amongst fight..

Give me feedback,with such liberal words,
but is that how you feel,or do you hide it unheard..

To lift my spirits,and tone my style,
or just a junkie poet,to bore you after a while..

Love it or hate it,doesn't matter to me,
just for your passion,a great verse is all I see..

Daring lines,with a courageous turn,
taking in heat,while I sorely burn..

Rehearsing every line,topic,title,and phrase--
to all you critics,it's just a long journey of surveys..

Dot my I's and cross my T's,
because the critisizm you give--only makes me believe..

All I can do,is write about me,
whether I turn out a slump,or victoriously!!!
