YESTERDAY
I was surfing the net when I found a site
That would welcome all the poetry I could write.
It had rules and things I was supposed to obey
But they were quite reasonable and I thought OK.
I joined these people. It seemed like fun
A new creative phase I then begun.
I posted some old stuff for folk to view
And the comments helped me start writing anew.
TODAY
Apparently someone’s commented about someone else’s verse
And that has caused so many folks to curse.
This cursing has been done against all the rules
And they thought no one would notice, oh what fools.
Now this sites split into different camps
Each with its own vocal champs.
Loudly proclaiming what’s right and what’s wrong.
There’s going to be real trouble before too long.
TOMORROW
As folk protest, scream and shout
The top site-boss has spoken out
The situation he has tried to defuse
But to change his rules he does refuse
I think he has done the right thing
But the comments still whiz and zing
What comes next I….ugh
Someone’s gone and pulled the plug.
