It's a poem, not a diary

[Keith]

some (and it's a very rare occurrence) poetry gets removed because it breaks the law. child porn, gratuitous graphic rape etc.
and not really as it's the poem that's being sanctioned and not the poet (though some will argue that's not true.

in total i think the site has gutted two or three obnoxious poems, that's not a bad percentage. we do ask for a spoiler in the subject heading for nasty stuff though. as for unsuitable or vulgar...we have a shit load of those on the site. i dislike many of them because of the content but censorship of that kind isn't on,

often i'll ask the mods "if we can ban him or her" and they shout me down with a " no yo can't"

i'm not a lover of people giving sympathy for a poem unless they know it to reasonably true.

i've just thought of a new style of poetry

diarhetic poetry

My question was a general one, not referring to this site in particular, I actually believe this site is very tolerant with its rebel members.

I do however believe the poem is part of the author, once he or she has chosen a muse and put pen to paper then the poet is responsible for the words on the page and how they could effect a reader. Of course I'm not implying that this makes the poem real and of the poet, what I am saying is the Poet should be held accountable for the poem. So in the case of the very rare occurrences then I would totally support the removal of the poem and the banning of its author.

diarhetic poetry is not new, I've been writing it for years
