How Unappropriate

Chasing mediocrity,
To seek an approval...
Is to deny one's best efforts.

Just because there is a variety of sleaze,
Presented in acceptable decadence...
Does not mean quality is not appreciated.

It just appears that everyone seeks mediocrity.
And those who desire an occasional taste of lowlife,
Do not necessarily welcome this in their homes.

They are the first to announce how unappropriate this is!
And what should be done to monitor such behavior.
As ideas to create new employment situations for themselves.
