I've already told you that I DON'T insist on rhyme or meter in poetry. Some of the greatest poems ever written are free/blank verse.
Well, we necessarily pigeonhole what we like. Not sure what you mean by this - I have to like everything?
But art IS what you or I like, it can't be anything else, since we are part of the viewing audience. You and I clearly have different tastes (and that's perfectly alright), but so what? If I like a bit of music that you don't, does that make it any less a work of art? No - it is a work of art that appeals to me but not to you. And that's OK, too.

TASTE, you said it right there!
That is where it ends.
I will never claim to be Paveroratti or Shakespeare or Picasso. But art isn't about always squeezing diamonds out of your ass.
And that's all I've ever said - I don't like your poetry because it doesn't appeal to me , not because it doesn't rhyme or have meter, it just isn't to my personal taste.
But you have to admit that you do have a tendency to lose your shit when people criticize you. For instance, this thread - you've spent time arguing with someone who has agreed with you all along. And all I called you to account for was calling your critics 'morons'.
