who writes clever all pleasing poems...
such a poet must surely steer safe passage clear
of floating minefield topics politics religion

to please all with any poem
is rather a mission impossible
there are those who love rhyme

there are those who hate rhyme
love or hate nature love poems
love hate every other topic possible

we seem to live in an age where
the personal 'I am offended by that'
is a trivial attention seeking sport

which belittles writ serious issues
thus our Poem Impossible Team
seeking to write all pleasing poems

must also entertain
in an attempt to crack
serious hard cases

from mask too serious
a judgemental frown
quick write poet clown...
