Rimrunner, I'm looking for creative criticism ... not idiodicy.Ah, CREATIVE criticism. I see. Let's try this, then.
Your poems are not the stuff of talk.bizarre;
They're pondorously long and often dull.
To me they seem below poetry's par,
Mundanely said with sentiments that stul-
tify the average reader's mind. Take note:
Your shopworn imagery should not be here.
Your ordinary poems have missed the boat.
You should away from here at once, I fear.
