How much verse is magnificent?
Point oh oh oh oh one per cent.
How much poetry is second-rate?
Around point oh oh oh oh eight.
How much verse is a botched hotch potch?
Ninety-eight per cent by my watch.
How much poetry simply bores?
None of mine and all of yours.
***
There are too many of us
Most poets are bad poets, the poor creatures.
Much worse than that: most teachers are bad teachers.
