On Radio

On radio this evening i heard a well known poet Give his views on a major writer and one unworthy of literary note Self opinionated in his views is how he seemed to me But each to their own one must suppose is how it ought to be In literary circles his opinions hold some weight by those who think they know best The opinionated literary critics the well paid and well dressed Literature's privileged minority who are well paid to decide On the unworthy of literary criticism and those who should be famed Worldwide He talked of his favorite writers and his own praises did sing To the self conceited and opinionated self praise seems a natural thing Cannot say i liked his way of speaking he sounded a bit of a toff Ten minutes listening to him enough for me the radio i switched off Though i realize he is admired by many but that too is okay Each to their own opinions as some do like to say.
