The Moderators

Missing image

Kevin Watt

That’s my name

Allpoetry dot com

Is my design, my claim to fame 

 

Tossing aside hair

Of a golden hue

I battle computer gremlins

On a daily basis for you 

 

Tall and bronze

I take my stand

With trusty laptop

And mouse in hand 

 

Reliable companions

Remain by my side

Their faith has been proven

And their patience tried 

 

They bring an end to battles

Before they begin to rage

Becoming more than mere words

On an angry poet’s page 

 

Thieves, predators and point stealers

They all must take a fall

Because they’ll never win

My crew and I will beat them all

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author notes

The fabulously creative image for this poem was done by the incredibly talented and well loved "cyberartist".

      That's because we have enough trouble keeping the mod lounge alone stocked with booze!

    What a delightful touch of wonder this is with my morning coffee. Upbeat and yet whimsical look into the role of moderators here on AP. I do appreciate the job you all do.

    lol I love this poem and the image. I think the mods all do a great job. Having a sense of humour is one of the best attributes you can share with friends and I'm sure you must all need one running this site sometimes lol. I think this poem shows how well you all work together

    Very Cute!!

    You have done it again Mom. Tis was absolutely cute and so very true of the things that the moderators, such as yourself, faces every day. You guys are a great bunch of people. Very friendly, yet fair, and quick to resolve the problems that the members may face.

    Right on! Never let anyone discourage you. I love this piece. very light hearted and uplifting. It is a great tribute to the mods of this site. I thought the rhyming makes it very cute, also. I have been around the site for a little while and I am always impressed by how well it is run. Great poem that demonstrates just that.

      It's all cyberartist's fault. He is the one who inspired the poem in the first place and his great artistic skills just seem toi show it off even more so. Thank you for the amusing comment. You made my evening!

      If you look a little more carefully leander, you are running the wrong way because as cyberartist pointed out to me... you run like a girl! Remember now... HE said it, not me!

    Perfect Weirdness

    Hahaha - I think this is a fad, or maybe a fetish, not sure which, that's going around now, MOMD. Pretty funny though. And, I never knew what Ann and Dee really looked like either. Wow!

    Woot! This is really too cute! Great job Kimberly. Ann and Dee are kinda hotties in this I think if some of the people on the site only knew what we do then they'd be more open to our positions I know I had NO idea what I was getting in for when I started as a mod Awesome piece!

      I can say this much... I learned the TRUE meaning of MODERATOR when I became one and I thought I was pretty darn good at it to begin with because of my background. Personally, I feel very fortunate to work with the team we have here and be a part of you all.
