That poet would see past the trivia, would occasionally notice the value, even comment on the worth, i.e.:

“I can't think of how to re-word it, though. Sorry I can't be more help; it's a cute little rhyme.”

“Some of this is really nice. The rhythm, though, is so almost-regular it really hits you where it's not. Other than that, good.”

“’To so confuse the daffodils’ would be better said ‘That so confuses daffodils?’ Otherwise, swell. 10”

“I think the clinical sound of 'goal' is great.”

“It's a companion piece for richa's dandelion clocks, maybe - and heavier on the Darwinism, which is ace. ‘Seeds are the goal’ is the best description of flowers I've read in a long time.”

“I'm reversing myself. Clothes is fine, but you need an extra syllable or two: ‘The best art only clothes the truth’ would do.”

I miss that poet.
