Steal This Poem Please

Steal This Poem Please 


Please just steal this poem
and make this one your own
in plagiarizing poetry
you know you're not alone

If you think it's worth that much
you know what you should do
don't worry about the copyright
just say it's penned by you

Please just steal this poem
and publish it to boot
spread it round the nations
I don't give a hoot

The beauty of it all
You don't even need AI
But you can just press copy
Then Paste it on you site

Spend your time and trouble
making money with my work
So one day I can sue you
for all that you'll be worth

Jerry, About my book -- I expect to have some extra paperback and hardback copies available to me from the publisher. (Or at least that's what they told me.) I can always send you copy. (I will have to let you know later how it will be advertised. I do know it will be available through the publisher and should make the book list at Barnes & Nobles and other vendors. (I live in Germany, but the availability of it will be worldwide.) I'll stay in touch on this. Best Always, Gary

Jerry, Another great poem here!! I could always incorporate into my upcoming book of poetry and list "anonymous" at the end of the poem (and secretly hide your initials)!! I always enjoy very much the humor you present. Always the Best!! And a "7" from me. Best Wishes, Gary

Thank You Gary, I knew---If I worked Hard----for fifty odd years---and dedicated my life to writing every day----sacrificing all things----for the sake of entertaining others---that one day---I too--- could rise to the ranks of the unknown---and receive the exalted title of "Anonymous" LOL----- where will i be able to get a copy

When I see my poem written by someone else here, I hope it was coincidental, unintentional or just a really bad choice on their part, lol! Love this poem!

ha! very funny, although there's an underlying truth to the fact that i'm sure there is a lot of plagiarization going on...

Thanks ilene, I wrote it as a spoof about how some songwriters have gotten sued by persons who claim to have written something similar years earlier. I wish I had a poem worth the time it took to write it, lol

I have at times been inspired by poems written here by other members, some were flattered, others not so much, but I always list them as my source and alway steer readers to the original, But I have read poems that have similar characteristics as ones I wrote, without any credits mentioned----I say c'est la vie . Happy Holidays Jan
