Uncle Tony,
Ay man, I hope you dont feel like ur gettin ganged up on, but at least people are responding.
We're all here to help each other.
One of the things I learned here is that if you have to explain the poems intent, its probably not working and needs a rewrite.
You said your intent was humor, I did not get a smile after reading this.
If I was gonna be completely honest, I read this, rolled my eyes and moved on with no intent of commenting until I saw the interaction here.
I written plenty of shitty poems man, the first step in getting better is admitting it and making a conscious effort to improve.
Refusing crit is fine too, but it generally doesnt make you a better poet, and that's what we're all here for, right?
