Poemhunter
Overrun by
Advertising
Self-promotion
No longer serves
The interests of
A serious
Community
Dedicated
To highlighting
The heroic
Efforts of poets
It has lost the
Vision of its
Original
Poignant mission
As a site that
Features poems
Introduces
Them to readers
Encourages
Enjoyment of
Rhythmic words
Fosters growth
In poetic
Ability
Advances the
Cause of poets
It is now a
Slave to many
Money hungry
Advertisers
Poem pages
Filled with bad taste
Invasive ads
That overwhelm
The poems and any
Relevant info
Reader comments
Or responses
Most egregious
Unauthorized
By poet authors
Are videos
Poems ‘read' by
Automated
Monotone voice
A blaring ad
Interrupting
After a few
Poetic lines
Disrupting the
Rhythm and flow
Of albeit
Creepy ‘reading'
Of written words
Poemhunter
A once noble
Site is disgraced
In infamy
