The title might be a little too strong, but alas. :P
.......

MY POETRY IS SHIT!

Some say that my poetry,
lacks consistency -
but I don't share this view.
Slowly the penguin shifted,
as the whirling tundra lifted.

Perhaps: I use. Punctuation! incorrectly :~
This does not falter my thoughts' intensity.
Despite the piercing jibes of a "wit" or "critique",
I cherish the guidance from those with technique.

First of all, I loved the title. It grabbed me by the face and pulled me in.

I love the parody. It's great. Especially the random lines with the penguin and the tundra - good poetic lines in and of themselves, perfect humor in the poem.

The line about punctuation was excellent. Hard on the eyes of an editorial type, but very funny - what are the "~" things used for, anyways?

The final two lines didn't quite fit with the poem - but all things considered, it's fine. Great poem!

...just, seriously? Don't really do that.

This, my friend, is flawless. I loved every word.

Stanza one was funny and witty, while stanza two was creative and thoughtful.

You're getting a star! :D

I like this (it's kind of hard not to.) The only thing is that it could be longer. It's really hilarious :) :)

I really liked this...and who does care about the title??? + it makes your poem stand out from the rest.
I also love the randomness, (penguins and tundras) :)
Couldn't keep myself from laughing about the misplaced punctuation. lol :lol:
