Bring Me Your Trolls

I will always fight,
on the right side of good.
Against those who bring hate,
like everyone should.

I welcome your trolls,
I will show them their place.
And if we should meet,
I'll present to their face.

Silence is golden,
no hate will be found.
But keep it up my arrogant little friend,
and I'll release the hounds.

If you are bothered by trolls,
just bring them to me.
We'll make light of their ways,
and let truth set them free.

Mark, Trolls are bullies that hide behind a faceless internet. It takes courage to expose them. Have developed several anti-bullying programs for kids ages 3-103. Thank you for continuing to expose this unacceptable behavior. Congrats on your POTD.

I took things a little to far yesterday. I apologize to everyone who saw me as a bully. They actually locked my account. They gave me a second chance and just now unlocked my account

Sometimes those trolls or haters are disguised as innocents and proclaim there is another, so be careful. And Connie is right there is that button you can use. Congratulations on POTD

You send out a great message Mark and I am delighted you have been awarded POTD. I am so saddened as a relatively new member that you too have experienced bullying from a troll on soup . No one should be subjected to this . Hopefully soup admin will deal with it but having contacted them recently on what I consider to be harrassment I am not holding my breath. :-( hugs jan xx

I remember the troll toys they were vile little creatures Mark and now we have internet trolls who are faceless creatures who... hide behind a keyboard ive been harassed recently by one on the site . People tend to forget that many who turn to writing poetry do so at times of difficulty in their lives... mine was my hubbies cancer surgery and as I often write silly poems to make others smile no one kows what is going on in our lives:-( hugs Jan xx

Truth, honor, decency and right triumphs in the end. Wickedness only basks in temporary and shallow victories that are as filthy rags to the Lord... Strong poetry that represents a stand for what is right.... A fav too....
