I have to ask maybe somebody can keep me from going off the edge. Some of you guys know I’ve been doing poems. I want to write, read and share. I found a couple of sites.
HTTP://www.lovejoey-poems.blogspot.com no comments yet.
The one to make my blood boil is
HTTP://www.poetrysoup.com. Does anybody now about poetrysoup? Am I wasting my time there?
I posted these below in the forum on 3 different days.
“I found poetrysoup and I wanted to share my poems. I was told by people my poems were good. I posted 12 poems. I don’t know how many times they were viewed but only 2 poems received one comment each. Then you have people post a bunch of one line sayings like “I hate you” and “I hate poetrysoup” and with all there crap it pushes my poems and other good poems off the first page and I guess never to be seen again. And it looks like the pm’s read and comment the pm’s”.
“I will try redoing. I’m 69 years old and my poems
come to me because my wife died in 2009
Thank you guys”
“I’m not a poet so I hate doing a bad comment because I don’t understand the poem. I don’t want to give a good comment to suck up to get a comment.
Can you explain how a PM poet lists a poem with 3 (three) lines and gets 65 views with 13 comments.
I post 12 poems my shortest poem is 12 lines. Between them all I totaled about 175 views with a total of 5 comments”
I posted this below today as a poem
If I write 3 lines
Do I also have to kiss behinds
If I have the blues
Will you give this some views
If I write about vomit
Will I get a comment
