I Really, Really Don’t Like Your Poem

 

 

By Elton Camp

 

 

Your poem I read with the greatest care

But no real meaning could I see there

 

It was unrelated words strung end-to-end

No talent or sense could I apprehend

 

A “verse” consisting of only one word

Who, of such a thing, has ever heard?

 

I have to wonder if you were on cocaine

Or too long at the bar you did remain

 

If I should dare to express any dismay

You’re certain to retaliate in some way

 

So without comment I’ll pass it on by

And another’s writing I will now try

 

Maybe yours has merit that I can’t see

But I sure can’t imagine what it can be
