My Thoughts On DUP Now
Hypocritical jabs and ridicules
For what?
A constant plea for stricter rules
Grown ass men and women
Bickering like there's no tomorrow
The webmiss said don't feed the trolls
What the hell do you call yourselves doing?
In honesty I would leave DUP
Not because of trolls and creeps
But for the constant insults flying around
Metaphorically beating each other into the ground
But you're not
I've lived in the midst of bickering
All my fucking life, it's sickening
I repeat, grown ass men and women
Quarreling futilely for what?
Pride?
This place was my haven
My cyber home if you will
When Facebook & Instagram
Provided no release or thrill
My real life friends are back stabbing
Only a few trustworthy companions to my name
DUP was a place I could let everything out
My poetry page was where I staked my claim
But now I venture out to the forums
Hoping to converse with fellow poets
But they're all in a horrid mood
On edge and they may not even know it
Seems only my constant followers
Are the ones with their heads screwed on straight
Yes, Grace, Vee, Rain, and a few others.
I'm talking to you... Thanks for keeping your cool here of late
Everyone else has lost their heads

KittyFH, we just stick together and write. Thats what DUP is for. Haters will always be there, but we have to persevere. Anyway, you are a good writer, and you will grow to be better and better.

I've learned that if you can't change the person, can't change the situation......then change yourself.
You see beautiful Kitty, we give people power over us with our emotions. I Love DUP! I've met some wonderful people, who are awesome poets like yourself, but I've also WITNESS behaviors of people with ugly attitudes, ego problems, mean spirited, uncouth, always negative etc... and many of them live in the forums, so I stay out of them. That is how I control my happy space and my joy for poetry and this site. I'm not here to be entertained by adults in cyber-verbal-fights. I like to have constructive dialogue, not combative debating that turns into disrespect. With that said, I've actually learned a lot from some of those forum threads and have applied it to my life, when dealing with people. So even in chaos, some good can come out of it, if you're open to change.
I've had two moments where I took a sabbatical from here because I didn't like the vibe. (Needed to change and equip myself with patience), returned with a different outlook. I'm a woman that hates confrontation, negativity and judgmental folks....so I stay away from it.
So don't think too hard about all the negative. Focus on the good no matter how small it may seem at the moment, use it to be the reason why you came to DUP and how it was your haven when you first joined, it still can become that again. :))
Write On Sweety!
Love and respect for ya....Xo
