Bad Poetry Limerick

(Written on Monday, going live on Tuesday.)

This limerick was suggested by several sources:

1. Today is "Bad Poetry Day."

2.  "Write a limerick that begins with the letter I."

3. "Write a poem or short-short essay on the subject of 'Power'."

If criticism's stolen your power

(Saying your verse is bad) for an hour,

Proclaim, "Yes, it is Bad!

I admit it! I'm glad!"

To reclaim your own poetic power.
