    rate this!

    when poems pour directly out from my soul,
    the "experts" take time to rate it so low.
    ignorant "expertise" entitles them to rate,
    expressions of others. to which they cannot relate.
    to them, poems are words they try to understand.
    then take it upon themselves to judge their fellow man.
    some day, maybe, they'll catch a clue.
    realize that not all poems relate to you.
    poems aren't just words, they're somebody's being.
    to be so negative is, well, down right mean.
    foolish divinity allows you to be cruel.
    you may feel superior, but you're only a fool!

    yes this is true!!, theses poems are of one's emotions, all different, but opened to a world of thoughts and expression!

    So true how poems are expressions and not anything to be taken as a grade on who or what we are or how much...

    thank you! glad you understand what i was saying. i've seen quite a few negative comments on here. it's too bad that a site like this was created for people to share words and expressions that come from inside them (neither right nor wrong) and then others take it upon themselves to criticize. if you dont relate, then a comment isnt necessary.

    Poetry is what gets lost in translation.
