To Poets and Administrators on this Site.



I don't feel like writing any more for you
It is not something I really want to do
You are a site with incredible potential
Finding you was for me providential.

I have met so many warm people here
That poetry flows in their veins is clear
But lurking in the dark corners of this site
Are some whose intentions are clearly not right.

I rather think my attitude to them is not deferential
And they expect their treatment to be preferential
I fully expect this poem to be reported for abuse
In any case I will try more poems, for you, to produce.
