    The poem discusses harsh criticism that writers often receive online from self-proclaimed experts. It notes that no matter what style is chosen, from rhyming poetry to free verse, critics will find something wrong with it. The author says they are happy to receive some positive feedback like "Likes" but do not care for harsh criticism. The poem compares overly critical comments that end with smiley faces to Hitler ranting with a smiley arm band, as if a smiley can mitigate offensive views.

    For the Writing Nazis Out There

    By Elton Camp Post online and get unsolicited advice Expect that some wont be at all nice When my writing such folks apprise Theyre all experts in their own eyes Your rhythm and meter are wrong. In the trash your poem does belong. Set a poem into rhymes and they say Only stuff for kids is done that way. But make a stab at writing free verse Your write didnt rhyme, they curse The thing that Id really like to say Just who asked your opinion anyway! To see a few Likes is enough for me Harsh criticism I dont prefer to see The post that is most likely to offend Has a stupid smiley face at the end Its like Hitler in a vile, bigoted rant On his arm band, a smiley does plant As if his idiotic views he can prate But with a smiley face, then mitigate

    You worthless scum! : )
