I laughed out loud. You captured it.. and.. frankly? If you posted that you'd probably get a decent amount of upvotes! That's your ticket right there.

I'm not really interested in critiquing specific poems either; very few people do well in response to unsolicited criticism. I'm just hoping to open up a conversation so more people can be more evaluative about what they support, and more intentional about seeking out the good quality posts.

Don't upvote the dross! I'm with you in it--I won't be unkind, but I won't ever let myself upvote something I think is terrible. It's not right somehow.
