I Found Your Write On Another Site You Must Read This

So I found my decipher placed 
on a site on cyberspace 
with my name replaced 
by a fake disgrace 

the rhyme I’d written 
where I hadn’t been submitting 
now get ready for teeth gritting 
yours too has seen a submission 

Listen Soupers were all in the loop
cus I found poems I read on Soup 
duplicated by this douchey duke
you should see this looters puke

Plagiarist profiles are mine to devour 
but this could be a website conflict
their site thinks it has poetry power
been contacted still my poem sits

Ettahoustine this fraudsters name
you’ll find your write just the same
A call for arms or should I say pens 
link below have a look my friends 

Without a doubt undoubtedly 
your own rhyme you’re about to read
a theft and crime so sad to see
copy and paste link Powerpoetry

Truth: He isn't reading this, and he is not concerned about being banned. Deleted. People like him, have no conscience. No respect for others. I am sure he won't, but he could copy and paste these words and place somewhere. Words about himself. How dumb is that? Anyway!! Congratulations Nick, on Poem of the Day. Sometimes it take a little push, to the right person, from the right person- to get an issue like this resolved. ~ Brandy

thank Brandy, I didn't give what he thinks a first thought let lone second, because I have no respect for him, this was easier than messaging 25 people separately, the fact is, I was annoyed to find poems and they are now gone, happy, as well as winning poem of the day, extra happy, if he reappears i'm quite happy to do it again, :)

Thank you so much for bringing our attention to this thief Nick. I found a poem there I know was Daniel Turners and I also found one of my own titled 'Under the Stars'. I truly appreciate you bringing this plagiarist to our attention. I'm so happy to learn that our poems and the thief have been removed! Bless you for that! Congratulations on your deserving POTD honor! : ) xxoo

Wow, he stole from John and Jan, too! Pretty unsettling to say the least. Now I'm gonna check to see if I'll recognize any poem of mine. This highlights why it's so important to register a copyright! Thanks for the eye-opening write, Nick:-) Heartiest congratulations on POTD recognition!

Just like gold, they steal our poetry...is there nothing sacred anymore?... I wonder if they took one of mine...is that a compliment or downright theft...Congrats!! on this informative POTD!! Nick...sending pen cuffs lol...^WW^ :o)

lol it's a mix of flattered and flattened when someone steals your poem ha ha I suppose in a way it's validation of some sort, I will never ever truly understand it though tbh….. I mean of all the things you can steal it has to be a petty petty thefts crime lol thanks for congrats :)

Thank you Arturo, I can't get my head around why people steal poems, I found I have a lot of fun taking them down in writes though, they seek attention so I write about them, lay it down blunt see if they still seek attention then lol thanks again

Congrats on POTD, Nick. I too was victimized by the douchey duke. I sent a message to the website administrator as have several others. Perhaps if enough complain he will be removed from the site...but then he will probably just pop up somewhere else. Thanks for helping make all aware of this, Nick. John
Trim Avatar
August 18, 2019 at 8:59 AM
Thanks John, I couldn't believe it, I recognised title after title or the poems themselves as I read through, thinking I swear I've come across these poems before, site say they have blocked him now so one small write for soup one giant put right for soupkind lol thanks again

Bravo for highlighting this Nick, the more I look at 'his' page I doubt any of the work is his and the profile is probably fake - I do hope the site admin get rid of him:-( Many congrats on POTD hopefully more folk will see the site and I guess some will find their work on it:-( hugs Jan xx

Hi Jan, thanks for the congrats and they have removed and blocked him now, (took their sweet time though didn't they I think it was 2 weeks ago I first contacted them) half a mind thought it might have been Crow re-flown taking one last dive bomb at us all lol I guess cowered like that stays cowered ay lol thanks again Jan, one of his poems I found was actually a famous prayer

Thanks for the heads up Nick, I found a collaboration of mine (least my name was on the poem along with all the other's who contributed) but also found one of my poems. one of Charma's and Nina's Dovecote Hill to name but a few. So far the site involved has done nothing to remove these poems. Hugs Jan xx
