Exceptional

I saw this a couple of days ago when I was looking through your works. It has irked me ever since that someone rated you on the content as opposed to the grammar and correct format.

I am allergic to cats. Should I three star all cat posts because I don't like them? Not cool.

So, I am giving you my rare and coveted Saturday Six Star to help right this wrong! Hopefully that bumps the overall rating to a five.
My work here is done.

PS
I am an Independent so have no dog in this fight.

Thanks for reading and for the sixer! Politics don't seem to go well on this site (at least from the RIGHT side) Bill

Excellent

Your use of several literary techniques adds to this poem. Your use of alliteration becomes onomatopoeic. The s's effect the sense of hissing. The word you, may be like a boo. The word "laughing" is the sound of laughing. This is actually quite cleverly sounded.

If there was no picture, would we know who you were talking about? People laugh for a variety of reasons. Do we know what she is laughing about? No. You condemn her as being less important than the issues. What issues?

Thanks for reading. Knew I'd get in trouble for poking some political fun at a democrat.

Excellent

I've come to wonder what is so funny myself when the country is in such a state of turmoil. I suppose if you don't know what to do about something and you're put on the spot, nervous laughter is the reaction.
