Algorithms

Quietly it happens, as it
Undermines the artist,
Erasing anonymously
Exactly what the writer had said.
Ridiculous, pusillanimous poseurs.

The Irony, LOL It’s a bit of titillation to be notified A piece of one’s poetry’s been pegged To be presented. It is a point of pride. Ironically, this item’d been issued When this group decided to hide A word in apt context, quite rude. Redacting the work of an artist, Puritanical, puerile in attitude, Ostensibly left them in protest. Yet, here we are with this irony. The calling out had been missed. Done here, you keep the money.

This is ironic. This poem was written after this site redacted part of a poem I had posted. This changed the poem completely. I have since stopped using the site, having removed my work. Thank you for your comments

This brief but pointed poem, Algorithms, functions as a sharp critique of the invisible power of digital systems. Thank you for sharing

Hey Keith ?? folk can take so much, especially when it's been happening not since one day or months but years. When they think they are not getting through, other tactics might be called for! He comments on my comments...I see that as making a statement, as if he is welcome there. He had hacked into my computer, inviting others to join? It was like shopping at Mikki mart, poetry that wasn't posted , was removed, passwords changed.....blah blah blaah
