Been here a while. I don’t give a shit who reads my poems. I just care that they are getting better. Also check out how well poetspeak does. He has a loyal following myself included but I’m here sporadically. And if you want I can post my bottom.

In all seriousness I think you should focus on your art.

Everything else is petty bullshit. But then again so is my art. Lol

So I don’t lose them. So I have a record of when I wrote them. And I guess the poets that follow me, I appreciate their feedback and consider them friends. I usually follow them too

Is it just me or do some poets steal others work by changing a few random words, just so they can impress a woman?
Is it just me, or are there trolls among us who like bullying others who speak out by using false accounts to make them try to leave?
Is it just me or do those men follow the most have a picture of their bottom cleavage or stocking tops?
Is it just me or am I the only one who despairs and feels like leaving again?

If it just me, then sorry and I will leave... Again


If you focus on reading, writing, commenting - all that other stuff isn't important. You'll eventually connect with other like minded individuals.

And If you or someone else are being bullied, report it no matter who the individuals are. It's anonymous. And even if it wasn't, it's not like you will be cornered at a school locker and punched in the nose. It's the Internet.

If the bullying is allowed to persist after reporting it, then you have a valid argument for leaving.

I felt like leaving in March, cause I still felt an outsider, but in reality I will always be an outsider because of my autism. So for good or bad I’ve stayed, poured out my words my way, if people appreciate then great if not , it’s not the end of the world or the end of the words in my head.

You deserve such a quota of respect for the philosophy you have adopted and I am also happy that you stayed and continue to share your undoubtful talents .

Valid reasons for leaving are very thin on the ground if you repeat this mantra -: Screenshot Evidence, Report, Block Report Again and ignore. Do this every time that you are affected by bullies and toxic people. Like in real life these kinds of people exist on DU as do predators of all descriptions. These people remain so it is not enough to report. (However, I would recommend reporting in all circumstances) even if it sometimes is ineffectual

You have skydancer to thank for that, I was all for deleting completely but she said take time out and if I still felt like it then delete, so I hid profile for a week then came back. So if ever people get sick of me it her fault 😂😂😂😂😂

Thanks for appreciating my stuff

I can confidently say that no one is getting tired of you, nor will they in future. I am the worst at commenting and I am trying to get better, but I keep my eye on your spills.

Wasn’t anything to do with bullies , just me being me overthinking not being confident in my own words, reading other poets stuff and feeling inadequate, but everything is perspective my perspective at the time was low self esteem

I was replying to you personally with words of praise, support in a spirit of friendship, which you may have missed.

The rest of the reply was to the originator of the forum discussion. If you like me to remove that part I am more than happy to do so and repost it directly to them

No it’s fine buddy, as usual I pick things up wrong. Don’t digest things fully before I answer . Has often gotten me into trouble in the past
