Tied Tongue
by OnepoetGem *the Poetic Rapper

Some reviews have a tied tongue effect, but basically it's an out right reject.


They show up and read
They either misunderstand
what they read or
don't like it period
Then they leave a tied
tongue review
part good and part worse
they don't like your verse

Actually they should just be honest
or leave no review at all
So much for the smoke screen
true feelings can be seen
They should untie that tongue
the rope has already hung

As the poet dangles
his feet kicks from the choke
but his pen doesn't miss
a stroke
This is just another day in
the den
Surely it will happen again

For those, you should have a good laugh, Grady. Thank God you don't get discouraged...we need your "messages"!

How sad, but sometimes we do have to deal with the good and the bad, don't we? Unfortunately yes, it probably will happen again and I am sorry....

Be always safe,

I think you're right! Yes it will happen again but sometimes our words do mean something positive to someone and even if they never do they have given our souls a voice. I enjoyed the poem very much Grady.

Hey One Poet--I Don't Write To Get Approvals Of Reviews,i.e. I Write For Me,Your Our Little Children And (God)...

Those With Enough INTELLECT Will Either Comment Or Pass On By!

Even You Read My Stuff And Don't Always Review As I Read UR Stuff And Don't Always Review!!

I Suggest Write For UR SELF!And Keep Em Comen Right On!!
