The Critic by lancellot
Write a review writing prompt entry
Humor Only

I hope you don’t think this poem is a hit?
With writing like this I might as well quit.
What reason are you posting this for?
Reading foreign poetry is a bit of a bore.
 
I would have made the background blue.
I wouldn’t write in an Arial format too.
Your writing should flow like ink from a pen.
It should show all the talent that’s within.
 
Making you feel bad isn’t my only aim.
But, your Luc Bat poem is fair game.
Please understand why you get one star.
I feel giving you two is going way too far.
 
I know I’m not new to the writing site.
Mute me if you want, that is your right.
I’ll just come back under a brand new name.
Standard reviewing to me is a fun game.
 
No, of course, what I’m writing is satire.
What you’ve written is made to inspire.
Your poem makes one happy to be alive.
Sorry, I have no six to give, so you get five.
