The Underhanded

In the shadows moving with stealth Preying on the weak his adrenalin to his health. A vile slithering serpent, an agenda to bring harm Beware the snare of his extended arm The doer of evil, the maker of hate The spreader of vicious rumors.always on his plate A spinning Web of lies,,to reel in the naive A creator of falsehoods,,to twist what you believe. So keep your guard up high, protect your fragile heart From this monsters clutches before he tears you apart. And to you the pretender you know who you are Karma will find you it knows who you are.

This is exactly why 'the whole armor of God' is necessary to help us fight against evils.

I finally realize why my sister said this place is not worth it. Sid was harassed constantly by a similar group in different forms, for not placing in her contest. ((you know who you are, I have your soup mails)) Especially the one, you think we did not get. I intercepted that pissed off mail before you send the calm one. Like I said you know who you are. And don't think for one second you got rid of Sid for good. She will return after her tour. LINDA

Dear Adminstritaion. Carl, is a friend and in no way bullying anyone through his poem. It's an epic poem, its reference has nothing to do with anyone on this page. These 3 poets have taken the bullying too far. Why are they allowed to violate poetry soup rules, their intentions are malice, spreading rumors gossip, about this poem. I've read it 20 times, and nowhere does it talk to mention any names. Everyone, on this site, writes about evil. Why are they paranoid, are they contributing to something that is nothing. ADMIN, I've seen this group before. They attack then report falsehood. I will stand up for my friend, he's never done anything to anybody on this site. LOVE LINDA

I don't understand why these peeps, are attacking your poem. They must have serious issues. Claiming baloney! I would never disrespect anyone poem, no matter the target. I can't believe these peeps act like their cr@ppie don't stink. When they obviously are the ones writing about others. I guess they are blinded by hatred. Carl, perhaps you should inform them, that this poem, in no way has anything to with whom they think it fits. Gosh, paranoia has got the best of them.

Carl, maybe you wrote this poem, because you fell victim to someone stalking you poems. Which is the obvious .... What I don't get, is why they think it's about them. Isn't a hypocrite someone who spanks your hand over something they are doing themselves

Grow up. Seriously. Please do not respond because I could care less about anything else you have to say. We should all be here for personal growth and self expression. Not to be disrespectful and cruel. Have a great day Carl! :)

Hey you showed up here I didn't ask u to. Last I heard freedom of speech was my right too.

Carl..in my experience accusers don't have tendencies to take a look within themselves and see their own faults. Hatred only makes things SO much worse. When a snake looks in the mirror, he is still just a snake. I sure hope you have a great night :)

I used no names. I call a spade a spade and a snake a snake. If the brood of vipers is exposed so be it. Don't think I've heard from u bfore. Guess you support the brood. Blessings Carl

You seem to know a lot about slithering snakes, Carl. Has one been hissing in your ear the way Satan deceived Eve? You might want to think about protecting yourself. Satan is called the father of the lie, so I'm sure you wouldn't want to be fooled by the evil serpent.

I'm neither offended or guilty of anything, Carl. Your poem is a warning to be wary of slithering snakes. SO I was making sure you were taking heed of your own advice. I've no reason to want to block you, but if you find my comment offensive, then by all means you can block me. Have a great evening.
