Calling them ignorant because they didn't have a thesaurus or dictionary handy is ignorant in itself.

It is also obvious that you use a thesaurus because you do not use some of the words correctly- and since a thesaurus doesn't have situational sentence structures you aren't able to look up how they are used.

While you may or may not have won these "poetry competitions" - that doesn't make you a better writer than anyone based on that fact alone. Not everyone in the world enters their writing into competitions. Furthermore, why should we believe that you have won these "competitions" - you can barely use the words correctly, let alone spell them correctly.

Sorry, Ma Cherie, you've just lost the respect of the people you call upon to critique your work. Try a different approach next time, eh gov?
