i read this because of the title. and i sort of got something else. its a nice jab. my only problem with mediocrity these days is when it thinks it something more than it is. as long as it knows then we are cool. i know thats not what your poem is about, but it sort think that. but it interesting that some people mistake mediocre stuff as being something greater than it is. that sort of happens a lot.

Better to be perpetually apathetic than occasionally empathetic, says me at least. Anyway, great title and a fine poem to live up to it... And yes, foreplay is very overrated. ;)
