his songs/poetry are terrible

To be fair, Tolkien's songs/poetry are terrible. He was a great writer, an amazing storyteller, and an unparalleled world-builder. But he was not a lyricist or poet by a long shot.

The songs and poems do convey a lot of information and help build the world. But that doesn't mean they're good.
