Integrity

There is simply zero integrity, In being anyone but thee. New poets are welcomed here. We all stand up and cheer! But do not take our soft hearts for soft brains. Poems must come from your heart, where your ideas reign! In desiring to rise to the top, To use others poetry must stop! Please, if this error you made, Delete poetry you did not write! At Christmas to discover this~ Is very sad indeed! And for that matter, far from trite! Godspeed! You still have a chance to make things right! Do it now before Christmas night! December 23, 2019

A great poem Panagiota, I have seen this on PS lately as well and it is very upsetting and uncalled for, hope they get caught soon!

Tania, of the hundreds of poets here, I can tell by so few responses, it's no wonder said Poet gets away with poetry theft. Said poet in charge of the soup now. Thank you Tania for seeing things. Changing things takes action. You are a good soul! Panagiota

You will see it.Oh, Lord, it's obvious. Like flourescent lighting. Very sad, indeed Panagiota

We had a case not so long back where this guy put poems from here onto a poetry website claiming them as his own, unbelievable. Don't know how some folks sleep at night. Tom

Tom, it's even a bigger shocker than you think. All of us are being set up and played like fiddles. And the poets follow this Poet like the Pied Piper. Said poet has manipulated many poets. Gets joy out of creating havoc?? I think I said enough. See my response to Ilene. You have ethics. Said Poet has none plus obvious problems. It's sad, my friend...Panagiota xxx ps, in this case said Poet goes to other websites and brings other artists works here and adds said poets name. You will be shocked when said Poet is no longer here. Panagiota xxx Merry Christmas.

it's so sad and annoying to hear that this type of thing goes on here. i haven't experienced it but have heard about it and am glad you've written about it in your poem. ~ have a great holiday......

Dear Ilene, it's really effected me. I don't want to write anymore. It's a shock to see it firsthand! I don't know why it should be. Dishonesty is part of the human condition. It's taken the joy out of my holiday. And the blindness of the poets here astounds me. That one Poet effects the integrity of the site, itself. I don't think you or the majority of us would cut, copy and paste several poems of other poets and add our names to it, do you? That's one of two things.. Insanity or theft. Sorry this happened. Don't swim with schools of fish and comment unconsciously. Watch the pattern of the poet. If one day..I am suddenly Shakespeare..,that,s a red light. You know I am not. I can't go from skater to Gold Medalist in a few months. Thats a hint and a clue, both for all poets here. Meanwhile, happy Holidays. Panagiota xxx
