If there were no bad poetry, there would be none at all. I am the master of it - trust me when I say this. All of the good poems have been written already by better Poets than I; how dare I infest their ranks? My meter should be ex ter mi na ttteeedddd let's not discuss my rhyme - but I put the pen to page, and punish myself... and you ...one more time.
Loved it, I feel that way many times. Right on but keep posting. What you may think is bad poetry others will find delightful. We can be our worst critic at times.

Dear Karla,
I've found that it's best not to compare yourself with others. Yours is a unique talent that stands on its own merit. I, for one, have been blessed by your writing. Keep doing what you do best ... writing from the heart. That's the True measure of good poetry.
Dear friend, since you are among no critiques of poetry, but merely authors that will forever wonder and question the goodness or badness of the poetry they write - or try to - and since "good and bad" can be indeed very subjective, especially when there are and there will always be people writing, more than from the observance of any literary rules or schools or currents, from the spontaneous flow of their imagination or feelings, and since being unique, and not to try and emulate other poets just because they were deemed as great (after they died, because in their days there were always those ready to deem them very bad poets indeed...) is the essence of writing itself, I feel you shouldn't worry... and know that you don't! ;0)
Keep letting your intrinsic Love&Light* flow... and write it down incessantly!

If this is bad poetry, I should dump all the junk I have written and read only others, for you have no idea what bad poetry is...;) Ed

Come to Stone Poem Ranch, a retreat center for bad poets! Gives you inspiration for wanting to be a bad poet. We have streams stocked with rainbow trout, the main lunch entre for the Bad Poet Society. Poet---alert and alive! Dynamically in touch with family and nature. Staffed by bad poets. Comfortable accomodations, where bad poets can bathe in the hot sulphur springs and the creek, trails and waterfalls, Indian caves and into the primitive mountains, or just relax bad poet. Of course this is just a parody to your poem, Karla. You're a GREAT poet, but you might want to consider becoming a bad poet with all the perks and ammenities Stone Poem Ranch has to offer!
(Giggles), thnx Karla, this is wonderful. Humorous, as well as true. Dare I ever hope to be in league with the great poets? Do I dare write my soul's feelings, only to punish others with my thoughts of a dead life? YES!!!!!! And I will continue to infest the world, so they may learn of a plight, which no human being should ever have to suffer. Great write sis, keep them coming. May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, stubborn to a fault, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your still very sad and terrified little sister, Barbie
"If I have to be this girl in me, Then I may as well be."
No need to punish yourself; you are a terrific poet, and your words certainly deserve to be read or published! I guess you can consider me a bad girl, because as long as you write, I will read! Excellent write! BRAVA!
(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin, Karen Lynn. :D
