write


a poem is one
thing, write it well another;
an awfully fine line

can

distinguish worthy
from unworthy, worth more from
worth less; and further

yet is
worthless,

of course: for what is
worth without worthless, or
worthless without worth,

or a verse written
against one written well?

Dear Chuck

For me when I read a poem it's the mind and the understanding of it and the writer and of course, the content of the poem. If it's written exceptional well, then that's a bonus. Nice one Chuck. Rosina xena465
