Bad Poetry

It always ticks me off when someone says to me "Hey, read this, I worked on it for, like, a whole hour!!!" and they show me some of the worst poetry, saying it's a work of art. When they ask my opinion, I say the truth, and they always tell me "You just don't understand 'True' Art." Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't true art supposed to be artistic?
I mean, Art is about your sweat, blood, tears, turmoil, pain, joy, and your all, and how you present it. If someone has no talent, then why the hell do they act like they do?!? Yes, I'm not going to be hypocritical, because I too write bad poetry, (website: http://www.geocities.com/phalkon13 I have good AND bad poetry there, but not because I'm shoving it in your face, it's only for people who want to read it)

But I also write some good poetry from time to time. As so, I am very critical about someone's art because I give my honest criticism!!! If someone asks me how I think it is, I'll tell them, and tell them how I think they can improve. So people, PLEASE, if you have no talent, REALIZE IT, and stop writing the damned poetry!!!!!
thank you.

Due to the ammount of bad poetry in this site's inbox in the last couple days, I was very glad to see this mixed in. - Devin
