It's a Banner Day, shout it from the rooftops,

"Mike's writing is absolute shit!" I pulled out all the stops

to piss someone off so much that they felt so outraged,

they felt compelled to go on a literary rampage.

When I looked at their page, you know, to see how a pro

does it, but they had nothing posted yet, no

bits of their wisdom did they have to share with us all.

I'll tell you, thank god, it was a wakeup call.

I may have kept right on posting more shit

but, thankfully, they straighten me out on it.

We shall see how to write, but until then, they got to see

their ingenuity for the rank in print, and for free!

I'm glad she told me now I suck, before I posted something new.

I'm grateful to her, I had no idea my writing blew!

Don't listen to her! We're all entitled to our opinions, which means she's entitled to hers and your entitled to yours. Keep writing, man!

Thanks Jeff, and I'm not letting it bother me--she did the same exact thing to another friend of mine on another writing site. It was a political post, so I probably pissed her off--I expect negative reviews from time to time!

Thanks, Hully, and I'm glad I didn't listen to her. I've found a few reviews where you go, 'say what?'

Thank you, and I'm sorry if the language bothered you--I used to swear a lot more in my writing as I used to think it was humorous, but over the years I've come to see it's just bad writing, but this person hacked me off!
