! God! You'Re Like, Sooo Banal... Comments

Thanks, Rusty, for pointing out 'oeuvre'. I've changed it to make it clearer.

There are some people that critique your life like they would a poem. It's called a mother-in-law. I would critique this work but I had to look up oeuvre in the dictionary. I always called it my stuff. As always Michael, well written and profound. Rusty

I laughed all the way through this one, Michael...and roared at the dedication. Well, the title was a hoot also. You've made a very important point in all that humor...and I'm putting this one in my favorites. Thanks for your wisdom with a smile. Raynette

Subtle as a sledgehammer wrapped in a Christmas stocking. Humbled and amused, I am.

great poem: so angry and so true...i like that! u.

Bonjour Michael, I guess you got fed up with that type of critic (as I also have in one of my pieces of last year) But I find your approach very refreshing - using to good effect your brand of humor to the fullest. This one goes into my faves for this year...Definitivement. Amicalement votre, R.

Excellent poem! I do love how your mind works, Michael. Thank God, our lives aren't commented on by others. We should all be sure the brain is in gear before putting our fingers in motion (on the keyboard) . Super thoughts. Super poem. Love, CJ

what can be said when all has been said and the pen is dry yet somewhere inside a need never dies and must be answered else the barren time goes on and on until a poem brushes the air and that blast is felt deep in the heart's core a really fine poem
