Of course you must call a valid poem a "write."
That belittles it, and makes its importance slight;
it makes you feel better
(without the usual gnash
of your teeth) when you consider
your own insignificant trash.

Author's Notes/Comments:
I object to the custom of calling a Poem a "write." It's a Poem; the word is not profane, vulgar, or inaccurate; the word is proper, and has been in use for about four thousand years. To fail to acknowledge a poem as a poem is, in my opinion, a tacit disrespect, a subtle insult meant to belittle the Poem's Poet, or to "cut" him or her "down to size."
You know the answer
Who was the one who coined the capital P in Poem, in the first place, anyways (that which you favor today)?
I'll give you a hint
bananas are the perfect food
for prostitues
My guess would be the ancient
My guess would be the ancient Greeks who first used the term. The Greek language did not originally have a lower case, so they must have capitalized everything. I capitalize it out of respect for the Art and those who serve it.
