Inflictive embarrassements of critics
Inflictive embarrassements of critics
Has left me go placid
Surmised, they would love it
Gazing at my poems
I ruminate in perplexity
Experiments performed
Had bizarre aftereffects
When, I write in plain english
Some appreciate, and
Some regard as a morsel
Sagacity needs sharpness
That won't strike many
Kosher remarks
Receive neutral credits
Jocosity is not everybody's cup of tea
They are pokerfaced at times
Same as well for serious themes
Levity has its surprises
Inflictive embarrassement
Are unpalatable
Yet naive, I will keep lucubrating
To burglarize those hearts of many
