A dangerous drama versus lovely legacies. - Adeleke Adeite's Blog

It was as if I have never heard it before, it was like a film trick to me... but I thank God my heart was able to sieve the gloom and take in the glow it's meant to get anyway. It was painful though yet it isn't new to me. I thank God some new members did not get to see those terrible and horrible scenes that has played out in the past weeks. I will still emphasize on these, blogs should be used to discuss intellectual issues that would promote the knowledge of poetry and love among members, if an issue is being over flogged it renders whatever good intention it was meant to hold null and void. I would like us to see PS as a poetry platform for the promotion of passion and not 'pride'. What lovely legacies do you want to leave old folks if all you do is fight for fame and fortune? I wondered. Thanks TPS for this timely intervention. God bless all Soupers, God bless TPS, God bless PoetrySoup! Adeleke.

James Fraser Date: 3/12/2011 5:17:00 PM Adeleke, blogs are an out in the open forum, that's what they are supposed to be. It's what's written in them that's the question? You mentioned below 'Gulf War' is an underground war. It's an area where a conflict was fought. Communicating in a blog fashion via Soup Mail is negative, and that is taking it UNDERGROUND, as you will never know what's been said. Now that could be more dangerous than a blog. I think Guerilla Warfare was what you were thinking, and it's not underground either. Although the Viet Cong introduced this with tunnels in Vietnam and Cambodia. It's a hit and run tactic, rather successful may I add. Kind regards, James....) Login to Reply

Carolyn Devonshire Date: 3/12/2011 9:49:00 AM Adeleke, you have a lot of class. I agree with all you have said. Blogs should not serve as a method to hurt each other, nor should comments left on poems. Suggestions offered constructively are welcome. We are all trying to learn more about the art of poetry.

Adeleke Adeite Date: 3/12/2011 8:53:00 AM I think 'Gulf war' to me means underground war. Since this issue has been over flogged on blog and it's almost tearing this house apart why don't we just relate via soupmails and send a powerful recommendation to TPS, I'd rather we do that than discus it on blogs, blog battle may change the situation but there are better means without much hurt to members. Catie I do understand your stand. Thanks Login to Reply
