Oh unread poets

Submitted by lovedly on Tue, 2017-10-31 15:50

to be treated as a poet
never go slow

when some guy like me
has nothing to mow

all unread poetry
one like me will swallow

and

you will be reborn as a poet anew

never say die
I will always come to read you...

That you will always come and read my poetry is a terminalogicalinexactitude, read others and comment then they will endorse your writes, also the attitude of commenting will catch on,
Yours, Ian.

It is a sad life, and to walk on poetic grounds can cause much upset.
Come walk with me on golden sands where neither of us will leave one footprint,
Yours Ian.. xx

But I have left

INDELIBLE FOOT PRINTS
not on sands of
TIME

but upon veins and nerves and genes of mine
a gift of DIVINE

I brought it
now carry forward will all ye
don't say self seeker poet me
I am also human
like a part of ye
but not a hypocrite nor
a critique

Always read your work though i don't always comment, i sometimes like to give things time to sink in. I'm a little slow on the uptake, but then i forget. sorry. Regards Roscoe...

Roscoe Llane,

Religion will rip your faith off, and return
for the mask of disbelief that's left.

If you read others' work and offered some meaningful critique, rather than some narcissistic babble, then others would be more inclined to read your work and offer positive critique.
Just saying.

------------
Remember we are a workshop site.
Don't forget to offer critique on poems you read.

jess... Ian and moonman also said so

sad still very few did comment in return
It's a you scratch my back and I shall yours
ma'am its moderna world

Now I post muchlee less
and really don't care
who does or who does not
about my poetry is aware....
or does remotely care

I am now above all sinking boats
and soon be a Titanic myself
Thanks for your appraisal though

Ego was my cancer
now you add NARCISSISM also
Thanks Jane

Shall post no more ....
