Anything On The Internet

A connoisseur of literature complained it is a
terrible shame, a transgression, that Internet
readers like the writing of authors not blessed
by the establishment, it’s incredible that these
upstarts, albeit now world renowned,  thought
it worthwhile to record their emotions on living
the unimportant events  of unremarkable lives

The arch-sin is they found an audience ready to
lap-up their unsanctioned, untested & unedited
work - as if no established writer ever recorded
their experience of  unimportant events; Balzac
to Proust to Collette wrote about such things, so
where did they find the courage to do it - would
they have eschewed the Internet if available?

I think not - so while highbrow aficionados look
down on these Internet sensations - the happy
crowds falling for them with elation - the public
ignores the academics who want to confine the
written world to their tunnel-vision and we read
everything that takes our fancy since we know
prescribed literature at school was terrible

And gave us a firm dislike for everything winning
academic acclaim then forced on kids as the only
prose worthy of attention, it’s so much better to be
free to decide on our own taste and entertainment
and everything in-between like alternative science
and quantum physics and anything on the Internet!
