Lowest Of Ratings Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Never has it been explained,
Why something to detest...
Is given the lowest of ratings.
By the same people,
Who had championed to give...
Their approval to defend.
Yet...
When their name,
Happens to be mentioned...
Publicly.
Object they do to the contents.
And its presentation.
To later have it heard said,
Privately.
How they support.
With a giving to endorse...
What they witnessed to see.
Never before achieved,
In detail and quality!

'Uh...
And,
Your giving it...
The lowest rating possible,
Is an intention to do what?
Attract to it more attention? '

'Of course.
That's what I am paid to do.
Along with controversy.
Controversy does the trick.
Nothing great becomes it,
Without declaring it awful.
And...
For whatever the reason.
Announcing anything awful,
Will bring noses out in flocks!
To agree how terrible it is.
Leaving it to recommend,
To others and their friends.'
