on some deleted poem

It's 'Love You To' by the Beatles, written by the great George Harrison. But you have changed a couple of things, so you could argue it's your new interpretation. But that would be bollocks.

it's like really bad syllogisms, but crappier.
'You are my vision/of perfect sweet'... You ARE an imbecile.
You get points for 'Pokemon herpes'.
Needs music.
icky.
This is a terrible piece. Not that I beat any more adoration for the lady than you, but this is a terribly bad poem.
I'm guessing magnetic poetry and writing down verbatim the ramblings of that drunk on the floor in ladie's lingerie at new year's. or it could be a joke. what's left of my optimism hopes it's a joke.
Hmm... what a thought that I'd ever say this to you. I think it needs a litle tweaking, but I couldn't tell you why. I just get the feeling it could be a tad batter. Maybe it's because I don't particularly care for Campobello or something like that.
jesus god, honey, the genius. i can't really say anything.
Yon Sir Yardbird, your deft wit is deliver-ed with panache and quick dispatch. Hurrah. No pissy little comments from me.
I can't quite remember where I've heard this before.....
Is it Mannfred Mann?
Quite fucking right. My vote goes to Cromwell, because he cut the heads off people like her.
Pretty darn good! I really like the idea of "dusty throated saxophone" - tell me, young sir, do you ever listen to the great tenor saxist Lester Young, 'cos he was close to Lady Day (hell, he came up with that moniker!), appeared on some of her finest cuts, and it just so happens his fabulous tenor sound was the dustiest and warmest sound going (or was that a deliberate point you were making?) Good work, sir - you have style (said he, shuffling off to his record collection with a glass of malt whiskey...)!!
The badness is quite palpable. it's like ectoplasm, but it smells like cat pee.
"Well, the Rock Island Line...". How many Brit and US musicians did Lonnie influence? Impossible to measure. A seminal artist in the history of RnR and folk rock. On this side of the pond, we just lost Adolph Green.
hey, we heathens have our rights too.
Eye hate to tell you this, but you haven't improved.
