Poem: Critic:
Created: (C) 07-20-04 Ora Moon

-I am bothered deep inside
Upon my face these deep shadows hide
I just need to blow off some steam
I don’t want to be unkind or mean

-In the end I will feel better
It may help you or it could hinder
Ranting and raving I scream aloud
I’m sick to death of the critical crowd

-Self appointed fault finders of everyone around
Positivism is lost to them plainly un-found   

-Concentrated position of every single flaw
Making others feel unloved and very, very small

-Perfect little dream worlds
Petty little minds
Will you not realize that you are most unkind?

-Are you upset?
Did you get annoyed?
Was it because I refused to be played with
As your favorite bashing toy

-Self-absorbed and judgmental
No compassion or reserve
I am critical of you
My voice shall be heard

-I shout out against the critic
Have you no shame at all?
Show some good grace 
We all have our flaws

-You people are giving me fits
You’re making me mentally ill
Think I’ll leave bit marks
Then make you take your happy pills

-What a messed up scene
Such spectacular baby tantrums
Having outbursts of giggles here
At your mind-boggling negative reactions

-For the love of all that is Sacred
Do me an enormous favor
Keep your harmful opinions to your self
You can’t break through my boisterous behavior

-Don’t act so superior
Why can’t you take it higher?
Please don’t forget
No body likes a hypocritical liar

-You can always find fault
Demeaning the precious self-esteem
It’s a matter of attitude
Do you really have to be so mean?

-I was bothered deep inside
But I really must set this all aside
This was not merely a pipe dream
I hope you really did not mind the loud scream
