Danny, you may have good intentions when attempting to preserve the authenticity of expression
Look at it this way:
Some poems are gold, some poems are basic lead.
There is value in cherishing the lead, but who is to deny the gap in preciousness between the two?
And who is to say polishing the lead won't make it more shinier and increase its value overall?
Some poems are piercing and fluid
Some poems are just horrid and boring
Like, if someone writes down a cliché and revolves their whole poem around said cliché, I'm going to call them out on it.
That doesn't mean their emotions aren't valid, not at all!
