Notes About The Poem


 

Blocked

To be blocked, it’s black and white or grey as a rock.
You can exist and be present, like floating particles in the air,
no mudslinging expressed but someone will make it their nosy affair.
Then a block, no valid reason for them to act like an angry cock!

A childish act of them trying to grasp a little control,
But they’ll end up acting like the biggest troll.
Past behavior often predicts their present one,
it’s only a matter of time before they’ll run. 

I will never use my control to cowardly block,
instead, I'll enjoy reading real poetry around the clock.
Not AI generated with flowery alliterated words,
Or full of garbled rhymes that are just plain absurd.

Did you upset someone, Tania. That was bad, causing them to block you, so sad. On the plus side, though, one less comment to make. lol

Was actually agreeing with, Tania. Maybe I should have worded it differently. Got my head on the block now.

Hey Paul, you are being rude to a very nice lady. What in the world is wrong with you? Are you looking for trouble?

The “bad” deed was not of Tania’s doing. If you would think that, you don’t know Tania.

Very good poem for sure. I agree, if I like your poetry, I will follow. If I don't they will never hear from me. If someone leaves an angry or cruel comment, the delete key is easy to hit. Have a wonderful day Tania.

sadly Jerry as you saw what happened on your poem, a poet can have YOU blocked from commenting on their poetry but can throw barbs at you on the poetry of others, wish admin would close the loophole but it will never happen

Catchy rhymes my friend! I know I’m in good company right here. I’ll watch your backs against any of the self righteous fluff fluffs and soapbox preachers.

Hope there is no sparring among friends. I do not block anyone. I try to be friendly with all. Blessings.

You'd have to consider someone a friend before you can unfriend them. I'll just stay within the ranks of the 'mean girls,' where at least I know I'm in good company.

Bravo Tania you certainly aren't mincing your words. Its sad how he thinks he can rule the roost coming back time after time with accounts and doing what he did before. Blocking us then messaging you to ask you to remove your blog and he will unblock you shows what a pathetic troll he is, hopefully the instagram brigade will see through his facade of a peacemaker - his blog was done to get a response from us who he blocked, perhaps their rose tinted specs will fall off one day. hugs jan xx

Jan, thank you, I have always thought that blocking someone is childish unless that person is harassing or threatening someone. It's like FB and someone gets irritated and unfriends someone. Ha ha.
