Poetry Critic Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

Critical of a poem

I never express a critic of a poem, because I don't know
what the poet was thinking of when he/she wrote it.
No one, to my knowledge, sets out to write a bad poem.
Therefore a poem written and published is a good one
even if the penmanship might be a bit shaky.
I do not care so much about spelling I can correct it
in my head, the only thing that angers me is if
the poem is dishonest in its intention, but I let this
pass, since I might be mistaken and it may be something
unresolved in me I have reacted to,
