Bias In Poetry

Bias is imbued in our society Bias in poetry is rampant and quaint Subjectivity dictates and objectivity Takes a back seat under the tent. Poetry is beautiful, fun and stylish However, to be known or appreciated One must be part of a literary and diluted Gang of friends and fragrant fish. Bias in poetry is colorfully obvious One can feel it and smell the aromas We want to read the best stanzas Rave and revere the best Morpheus. Poetry should not be about the Poets But about the literary works, the poems We want to love and reward the best artists With a parade of trumpets, horns and drums. P.S. Young Poets, please don't get discouraged. Copyright © October 2020, Hébert Logerie, All rights reserved Hébert Logerie is the author of several books of poetry.
