where to go

Purple Sky hazey sun not sure which way to go follow the darkness, Maybe the dark I always love a challenge. Maybe the sun, save myself from depression. The dark is always sucking you deeper even just thinking about it it drives you mad. I'm being sucked under. Deeper and deeper I go screaming carries everywhere. To the point that I am suffocating and then I'm not there.

Immediately turned off by seein "Purple" and "hazey" together - but I'll keep reading...

hmmm. I like the last two lines - but I still don't know what it was about.

This kind of makes me think that Hendrix and Jim Morrison got drunk together...

"What does your heart tell you?" - you've been waiting to say that all day.

I think you should send them the $50 for the anthology and then video the appalling look of quadro-duncely disappointment on your colossally drooping face when you realise you've just lost $50, your reputation, and the remaining shreds of your already severely embrowned self-esteem on a poorly-produced anthology of hobo-grade cackamuffin by spaz-compatible nobodies. -10-

ok... well if its a scam then why hasn't anyone done anything about it? like sew? cuz I mean if you can sew your prom date for not taking you to the prom (yes, yes that possible and the prom date that was dumped usually wins) then i'm sure you can sew them for running a scam!

Because to sew them, you would first of all track them down, and then have a large enough needle and enmough thread to do the trick. It would also probably be rather messy, as human beings have a tendency to bleed when needles are pushed through their flesh. Not that it's necessarily a bad idea...

As for the idea of suing them, I don't believe they've ever done anything they didn't promise to do. Your work is publsihed in an anthology -- if you pay. And suing them on the basis that they promise all the works would be outstandish runs into the tricky defence of artistic merit.

Yes, my dear girl, Poetry.com is (essentially) a scam.

Wow, this is wild...I like the night, the dark, the moon...I like the wildness of night breezes, and shifting clouds. But I suspect you speak of another kind of darkness, here. Yes, the sun...they say it is nearly as affective as meds, for depression. I love the ending line. Abrupt. nice job.
