Have a look on the Forum - there's a thread there about plagiarism. I think this qualifies.

Is this supposed to be poetry?

Reading between the lines, I'm guessing you're making some sort of comment about poetry reviewing. However, like much of the poetry on this forum, I'm at a complete loss as to what you are trying to achieve. It may be plagiarised, but it fits in well with a lot of other pointless nonsense here. 
 
Not clever.

BTW - if it is about reviewing - and how could I assume otherwise looking at the content? - the trick is, to do some.
