I'm going to go learn Haiku. If I'm not back in a week, send in the troops... I obviously need help. Kidding. Just learning how to navigate this site and how to upload poems... that I feel are good enough.
I joined this site to try my hand at writing poetry. Someone (I won't name names) attacked me in my inbox. The message instantly made me angry, so I deleted it. Otherwise, I'd find out who she was, where she lived, and what kind of tires I'd be slashing.
When people come on here and are vulnerable enough to share something with the world, have a heart people!! And if you "took literary your whole life" you dumbass, you'd see/know that your comment was ALL over the place. No rhyme, reason or structure. You jump from insult to insult back to insult and then 'Oh by the way... Are you Katie B?"
And for the record, no. I am not Katie B posing as someone else. I'm probably a Katie you're going to wish you never met...
Have the day you deserve you miserable POS

I feel the anger in this write and it is sad that a poetry site is used as a social forum. People are people what can I say. Sorry your initial experience was so traumatic and I hope that you don't take that as the norm. Some people choose to use pen names to preserve their anonymity and I respect that so why pry as to who they are. Some choose to give their first names and others not that is their business. Even if you were someone else what difference would it make? I normally would have chosen to make the write on the same inbox but since you had deleted it I can understand. I hope that the future is kinder
