Some Resent Our Comment and Become Absent

mvvenkataraman

Some people find patting cumbersome,

So, let not patting be made shrewdly,

For some reason the patted withdraws

And send not their poems sorrowfully,

It is surely better not to pat good writers,

They simply don't come to the picture,

Read everyone's poem to give views,

But for one or two, others don't praise,

In a way others don't read my poem,

They are satisfied with my patting

And my poems stay unread sadly,

Reading others' poems is fine,

Better to encourage in that way!

    Commenting is a greater art than actually writing a poem. Sadly most people have no idea about the difference between genuine criticism of a poem and meaningless praise.This poem raises these questions. I am not sure there are any answers

  • Doggerel Dave

    Focus on your title, which is easier to understand than all that 'patting':
    If the poem has many words but says nothing, why should I encourage? I've clicked (poet gets the score) read and wasted my time.

      A noble poet indeed, he has clicked and wasted his time,
      I am happy to have had another view out of ten views,
      He has pushed me to get the privilege of one more view,
      What a generosity and what a friendly attitude indeed!
      Like a dog I am grateful to have had a comment also,
      In YouTube, they would say in the title something
      And show nothing with relation to that topic at all
      And billion views they would have gained by that trick,
      So, I have gained a precious view? what a patting?
      One view is added by mistake and so I will read
      Ten views less one and jump with great joy,
      There are many noble souls who do this kind feat,
      Thank God, their presence helps us get a view
      And they give views as alms and feel sorry,
      I will beg the site for a \"Cancel the View\" help
      And those who foolishly entered so sadly
      Can cancel the view later and feel justice done?
      He had read the poem and was not satisfied
      And so he spent his time to give a comment,
      It is like he saw a man meet with an accident
      And decide to stab him to quicken his death,
      After wasting his time by reading my poem
      He had taken efforts to give a comment also,
      What a funny situation, double waste of time,
      May God bless this freakish individual kindly,
      And support him for his superb generosity!

      Waste of time.

      I like to think in a world of such complexity as ours most surely is .. a little give and take makes it spin around sweeter and more comfortably .. Neville
