The Poem Polisher

Let's start at the very beginning,
A very good place to start.
Just echoing Julie Andrews words,
As I pick your poem apart.
You called me to have a look,
Simply to polish it up a bit,
Raise it to a high standard,
So it doesn't read like shit.
Oh dear God you've written about suicide,
That has literally been done to death.
So I'll just vamp and sex it up a little bit,
Leaving a reader horny and out of breath.
Tut tut, you naughty naughty boy,
Using two silly words instead of one.
I simply sprinkle my poetry magic,
And repair the damage that is done.
Hello what's this! Another typo,
Do you really know how to spell.
Or do you write in a twilight world,
Under a dim candle-lit stairwell.
Now we arrive at the last verse,
You're pushing a word to make it fit,
Foolishly forcing an end line rhyme,
That will end up reading likes..... hit.
Here's my hideously overpriced bill,
Please don't be dismayed and glum.
Soon a poem worshipped by millions,
And Poet Laureate you will become.
