Question: Greatest poet ever? And why?

No - one knows..we feel and think differently, at different times, in different moods and in different cultures.

Yet opinions can be shared.Thank You.

I heard the truth was built to bend
A mechanism to suspend the guilt is what you will require
And still you've got to dance little liar

It's just like those fibs to pop and fizz
And you'll be forced to take that awful quiz
And you're bound to trip and she'll detect the fiction on your lips
And dig a contradiction up

And the clean coming will hurt
And you can never get it spotless
When there's dirt beneath the dirt
The liar takes a lot less time

I'm sure it's clear and plain to read
It's not an alibi you need just yet
Oh no, it's something for those beads of sweat
Yes that will get you back to normal

And after you have dabbed the patch
You'll breathe and then proceed to scratch the varnish off
That newly added calmness
So as not to raise any alarms too soon

And the clean coming will hurt
And you can never get it spotless
When there's dirt beneath the dirt

The liar takes a lot less time to decide on the saunter
Have you got itchy bones and in all your time alone
Can you hack your mind being riddled with the wrong memories?

And the clean coming will hurt
And you can never get it spotless
When there's dirt in between the dirt

Question: Is this poem good? Wrote it casually looking for constructive criticism.?

Here it is

If by chance we were to meet
and I had the courage
and you the time,
this I would say to you:

I take the sun and the sky and God above
as witnesses to this exaggerated proclamation of love.

The wind carries the leaves that they may meet on the breeze,
by chance?
No, not by chance.
Twas fate that made their paths cross.
And this I say to you:

Just as the leaves are we.
Kindred spirits drawn together on the whim of life.
And if ever two were one, then surely we.

And since the the moon and the stars and God above have witnessed this exaggerated proclamation of love,
know now my heart.

/* So yeah just kinda wrote this, idk why really. Didn't follow any specific format just came to me. Thoughts? */

It's Jan Kochanowski on of greatest polish poet of XVI century:-)
He was known for humorist light-hearted poems :D

Question: Would you care to share any thoughts you may have of my poem? [if you would read it]?

TO LOVE,
_-_-_-_-_-_

"Would you write your favorite a love poem?"

I would write it, if my favorite would read it
And be damned to betray my worthy secret
And the enemies whom I poise to make
Would surely poison my Rebirthday Cake
against me...
But, today, I would give whatever is tak-ed
To feel my favorite body -my beloved naked-
Against me!
If I'd just recall her, in daughter or son,
I'd not regret having ever begun
To love

Question: Why does the poet use the metaphor of the punchbag in the poem?
