Hacked Off

Hacked off 

Somebody hacked my poetry page
Shut down my account
I don’t feel anger don’t feel rage
I’ve backups all about
I just feel sorry for this act
And the comments that are gone
But Robert Broadbent will be back
And my poems will live on!

that is a real drag, robert! i'm hoping that it was an accidental act and not one done maliciously. at least you got to express how you feel about it in rhyme, which always makes me feel better (and gave soupers an enjoyable read tonight)...

Thank you Jan, like I say I have backups but the comments are so important, that, to me, is the saddest thing! I actually feel sorry for whoever did this, anyone who is motivated by such unnecessary nastiness must lead a very lonely life.
