Sitting amidst the things we hold dear
shouting aloud the ones that are good
decrying those that fall short
we read and we watch with raptured eyes
Please tell us what is good
please tell us what to watch
what to not
think for us
Yet to dream of this legend job
for each finds their own interest
and finds the grass greener
oh how wonderful twould be
For some perhaps, the movie critic
how dreamy to be paid to watch the movies you hold dear
to another perhaps, the food critic
eating food for a living! How could this be bad?
Still others left to criticize
games, books, music, more
each seems to find that thing
seeking out the experts
But secretly I think
the expert is here within
when we take our experience
and look at life with fresh eyes
Yes, the things we find dear may not be popular
perhaps they rate on the lower scales
but there are gems to be had out of the limelight
find the critic's voice within
