    What if I PRETENDED to be a new member from November? Watch this. This is some SUPREME acting skills. "Romeo, Romeo, where for art thou November membership? Oh, thou do not have on, yet, alas, I do. Sha'nt the AllPoetry staff let down their hair and discriminatory membership rules like your family, O dear Montague, and let me enter my poetry?" See? I am SO convincing.
