you don't have to be qualified in the area to tell someone that you
don't like it. if that were the case most people on this earth wouldn't
have a right to say a damn thing.

do you tell a engineer how to build his building if you dont know how..
Then if you cant write be carefuk of your critique.

Fair Enough..!

I was hoping you'd go there. Someone asked about fisting also, I don't
do that, but I do enjoy sex, should I not have been able to express
myself regarding that one either? Aren't you the one ranting about our
right to voice our own opinions in however fashion we chose?

I think we should all just say how we feel be it good or bad about what
is posted. AND NO, I do not believe you have to be a WRITER to criticize
someone's work? WE ARE ALL WRITERS HERE,LOL?
Or we could'nt talk to each other,lol? People HERE seem to spend MORE
TIME saying remarks about SOMEONE"S REMARKS, than I have seen
WORK??????????? I love to make shit up but it's always issue's here
with issue's NOT PEOPLE"S WORKS?????
THIS IS NOT A PROFESSIONAL NETWORK FOR POET'S,
SO WITH THAT BEING SAID COME-ON EVERYONE LET'S SEE WHAT'S IN YOUR
MIND?????????????????????????????????????????????

An opinion is just that... artist know that better then anyone.
The Alleged Poetics most also be held accountable.

Poetry is never politically correct
poetry is individalized each time it is read depending upon the person
reading and what is going on in that persons life at the exact moment it
is read. Poetry, words, emotion, individuality,
imagination, love, hate, anger, it is all wrapped up in one...

So, given this new information regarding what poetry is, I say the same
is true of EACH AND EVERY OPINION GIVEN at any post. WORD FOR WORD.
Well said, thank you for the perfect explanation for all of it!!!

Fair Enough... but the reader is not concerned with what lead the writer
to write about a particular subject and therefore should not be expected
to have sympathy for a offerring that did not connect. Artistic Merit
givs tne artist th will to carry on.

yep... oh well.

Thats Right...!
