What does one say who has nothing to say?
Do you comment on rhyme or subject of verse?
But what if the words really do not make sense
Do you give a “HI” or a “WOW” or isn’t that worse?
What if the author just misspelled most words
Or worse yet, they messed up the grammar?
So, what do you say if that’s truly the case?
Do you sugarcoat or bring down the hammer?
Does it make any sense to disparage the write
To tell them they used the wrong words?
Or, does it help, in fact, if you tell them the truth
By saying the whole thing’s absurd?
If a writer of writes had written so poorly
And from the very first line you stop reading,
What say you then? Do you tell them the truth,
Or find yourself further retreating?
