middle brow poetry

it's middle brow
at best
the critic says. pedestrian
prose,
and poetry.
not even a hint of
complexity.
there's no puzzle to solve,
no words
or mythological
creatures
to look up.
everyone knows what
you're trying
to say.
give up. let it go.
poetry should be confusing,
not
this way.
