“BORING OR NOT?”

 The question I am asking of the self today,

 Is my poetry boring or not, in anyway?

 Sorry, but have felt self-pity of late,

 Maybe I should hide behind a gate,

         Or maybe I should wait,

         For a negative review,

         Will it be from you?

         If so, then please understand,

 I do what I can with what I have at hand,

        I never had any formal training,

      For poetry I find to be of the self,

 What more can be said of this poet so clueless,

 Maybe he should just acquire the  guidance of an

                         Elf?
