A Sincere Confession Poem by Sandra Feldman

A Sincere Confession



I've tried to but I can't,
Make believe, I like,
What I read, askance,
Give out complements,
Like false peppermint scent,
Giving praise, I never meant.

Sincerity is not temerity,
It's part of a poet's heart,
Poetry is much too sacred,
To lie about it and tear it apart.

Be as it may,
A critic, I am not,
Selfishly, what touches me,
Is what, I'll keep in heart.
