I Have No Further Comments
Should I respond to contemptuous comments on my poetry?
Perhaps I should say something positive or persuasive.
Or perhaps I should remain silent in the presence of my adversaries.
The truth does not need to be defended at any time.
I will only respond to constructive comments that make sense.
My time is too valuable to waste it on debates and controversies.
I am not interested in babble or frivolous talk.
When I write a composition, I say everything that I want to say.
And therefore, I do not have to make any further comments.
Let people say what they think about my poetry.
Everybody has the fundamental right to criticize freely.
People also have the right to their opinion, even if it is foolishness.
Some people are living in ignorance, but that is not my fault.
Truthfulness is not the possession of many people.
Most people prefer lies and deception to truth.
It is unreasonable to expect me to respond to malicious comments.
I will not respond to comments that are not on the subjects of my poems.
Finally, I usually use general terms in my poetry,
So anybody who wants to take it personal, it is up to them.
I have no further comments on this issue, thank you.

So here's your constructive comment that makes sense :
We are all entitled to have opinions and beliefs as well as the right to express them. Your other poem about gays, had a line in it about how they should "go to hell because of their obscene practices".
^^That was what prompted us receiving a report about it-- the opinion that teetered on inciting hate.
The only one who gets to decide who goes to hell, is God himself, and not any of us. You don't have to like or approve of, any lifestyles that go against what you personally believe , but tearing people down in the process, doesn't serve to right what is wrong or what you believe as wrong-- it just creates more division.
Next, your poem "The Messenger"-- all I'll say about that, is make sure you're hearing the right message from the right souce(s), before you go spewing them around . You can be a mouthpiece for God, if that's where you're coming from, but be careful not to overstep and come across as being. (the) allmighty, because then the message gets lost and you become subject to the same judgement you think others should have, then the proprietor of hell, scores one for that round.

Firstly, the expression "go to hell" is not literal. Nobody can literally send a person to hell. Furthermore, the idea of a hell is just a belief. A wise person would know this.
If I had said politicians should go to hell, nobody would have a problem with that. Homosexuals are too thin-skinned.
Who on this website does my compositions attack? I am not writing for or to anybody here. My poems are written in general terms. Only fools would take a poem personally. There is evidence that some members of this website have taken offence to some of my compositions.
As for the poem entitled, "The Messenger" it seems that "the cap" fits you.
