I think you may have isolated the problem - you just don’t care.

I've started a vivisection club.

Fridays will be Open Mike Night.

I once thought about opening a trepanation clinic.

But I need that hassle like I need another hole in my head.

Took you how many years to get the jist?


If I took it personally every time someone said shit to me I would make Hitler look like MartIn Luther King Jr.

No, I don't care. No, I also don't want anyone dead either. I simply got past caring what others think I should do or be. I am myself, and make no apology for it.

No, I didn’t mean you don’t care what other people think about you. The fact that you don’t is an admirable trait. 

I meant you just don’t care about poetry. You seem to think that if you take whatever random sentences appear in your brain and break them up into quatrains that it counts as a ‘poem’. It really doesn’t. For someone who claims to be a poet, you obviously don’t care enough about poetry to even attempt to construct a poem, contenting yourself instead with the textual equivalent of a case of the trots.

And the word is ‘gist’, not ‘jist’. A poet should know that.

For someone who doesn't care you sure take offense a lot.

And he can’t seem to grasp that a critique of his poetry is not a critique of him.

I do care about poetry, but I don't care what you think about my writing.

Hiccccory dickkkory dock

A criciic didn't like me

A round a 25cents in

I didn't give in

Now ask me what I think?

(End, yes, I misspelled this time on PORPOISE) Dan Marino will be as upset as you read this. 

Boru, I only have one life. I have NEVER claimed to be perfect, and never will. But I am also not interested in living like I have a stick up my ass. 

I don't care what you think of my poetry.  AND FYI  in the context of this thread, It was a joke. Thus the "humor" section.
