Stymied By Soup
I posted a poem on the Soup
But my smiley face turned to a droop
For instead of one post
There were 30 (at most);
Guess the site made a really big bloop.
In trying my best to delete
(For who needs to see poems that repeat?)
There was some kind of glitch
And “Delete” made a switch
So my poem list is now incomplete.
They deleted three months of my work
All the comments, too (such a sweet perk!).
I complained to the Team
Those who reign there supreme
But the answer seemed typed with a smirk:
“If Delete was the button you hit,
Though by accident or if legit,
All your poems have been lost;”
But I feel double-crossed
For no wrong-doing did they admit.
Though a reason, at least, would be nice,
“Sorry” just doesn't serve to suffice;
Seems the people in charge
Sent a message writ large:
If you need our help, better think twice!
