Yay!!! You are alive! ngl was getting a little worried there lol.
Exactly… It definitely takes a few magical capabilities to be a forum moderator. 😅 Especially when the evil spam bots are constantly trying to take down precious Whaley. 😤 Not on my watch!

Okay okay. I think I might have fixed the problem?
For some reason, the WordPress system was flagging everyone’s posts as spam. Especially dear Whaley. 😭😭😭
If you are still having trouble posting let me know. Also, I’m going to be on here a lot more frequently so I’ll be able to nip the problem in the bud before it ever gets too out of hand like…[Read more]

I love the imagery the words create! Your style is very different from mine so I don’t know how helpful I can be, but I’ll try! 🙂
What meter are you using? (I’m not very familiar with meter so I have to ask.)
The rhymes are slant rhymes I think? They’re not exact. But it’s pretty consistent until it gets to the last stanza. I don’t think that…[Read more]

I love the freeverse (that isn’t freeverse) poem! 🙂 Absolutely! Tag me when you post that poem that’s giving you grief. @koshka

Goodness me, I thought I replied to you ages ago, @koshka! Sorry! Now that I think about it, I went down a rabbit hole of web searching and trying to figure out what sort of poem it was, and I think I started to write a reply but must’ve never posted it.
Essentially, it’s a rhyming poem, but not a metered one. Some sources consider it free verse,…[Read more]

Lately, I’ve been brainstorming a very important question to my WIP: Why do the aliens attack? While I’d been kinda hoping to leave it as simply random and kinda comical, lately I’ve been wondering if I’m not just being lazy. Shouldn’t the aliens have a reason or purpose? I have some ideas of my own already, but I’m curious. What do y’all think?…[Read more]

Now that I think about it, I’m really stuck on the edits so I might as well share what I’ve got here and see if you guys can’t help me get unstuck. I’ve made a few small changes that you may notice, but the main thing that I’m struggling with is settling on an ending.
I’ve written several endings that all have slight variations in words and…[Read more]

Thanks, @karissa-chmil! This is definitely one of my poems that I find myself going back to a lot and rereading. The atmosphere and imagery of it really draw me in, and I like pondering the meaning of it. 🙂
One of the edits I’m considering is possibly connecting some of the shorter, broken lines in the part of the poem you mention. It’s supposed…[Read more]

Mallory O'Bier replied to the topic The Moonlit Sea and Me in the forum Poetry Critiques 5 months, 1 week ago
Thanks, @koshka! I love the layered meanings of words too. It was funny because I drafted it so hastily and impulsively that I didn’t even realize the full depth of meaning I had woven into the poem–until I was reading and rereading while editing. It was intentional and yet much of it was subconsciously done.
I just let all of the mixed-up…[Read more]

Thanks, @koshka! That would be great. 🙂
I wrote this poem after my uncle’s passing. He was self-taught on guitar and left a few of the instruments behind (as well as many people who loved him).

Kathleen replied to the topic Why was my post marked as spam? in the forum Questions and Support 5 months, 2 weeks ago
Glad the post is now up!
I think it must’ve marked it as spam before because I edited it a few times?
That’s my best guess. The site tends to get a bit finicky when making edits. I’m not sure the exact cause of why this is, but I’ll be looking into it!

Mallory O'Bier replied to the topic Why was my post marked as spam? in the forum Questions and Support 5 months, 2 weeks ago
Okay, I just deleted the old post from my feed, redid the post and reposted it. It worked. 🙂 @kathleenramm
I think it must’ve marked it as spam before because I edited it a few times? Not really sure. Weird.

I’d appreciate any and all feedback on this one! It’s an older poem of mine that I really want to polish and improve. Thanks! 😀
The Shabby Guitar

Silent is the shabby guitar
Locked and put away
Faded are the songs it made
Folded are the hands that played

Silent is the shabby guitar
Slowly losing its tune

Thanks, @whalekeeper ! 🙂
Hi, @kathleenramm ! I haven’t tried reposting it yet. It’s still hidden so far as I can make out. I see on my profile that I made the post, but it’s still marked as spam in the thread section.

Kathleen replied to the topic Why was my post marked as spam? in the forum Questions and Support 5 months, 2 weeks ago
Thanks for letting me know about this issue! Spam marking is an automated program and unfortunately, it is quite faulty and unrightfully marks perfectly fine posts as spam. I’m currently looking into ways to make adjustments to this program so that it’s more accurate with its spam marking.
Have you been able to get your…[Read more]
