To expose your ass on paper:

terrifies some

and

it should:

The more you put down

the more you leave yourself

open

to those who label themselves

"critics."

They are offended by the outright

antics of the

maddened.

They prefer their poesy to be

secretive

soft and

nearly

indecipherable.

Their game has remained

unmolested for

centuries.

It has been the temple of

the snobs and the

fakers.

To disrupt this sanctuary

is to them

like the Rape of the Holy Mother.
