Dear Members -

As is clearly spelled out in many different forms and in many different font sizes at the top of every journal I write:

THIS IS NOT A POETRY GROUP

So would some of you kindly desist from posting poetry and either passing it off as 'Journal Entries' or sticking it into the 'Scripts and Misc' folder.
Contrary to what you may or may not have heard, I am not blind. I am not stupid, and, while I know that sometimes one can go 'group happy' when submitting pieces, multiple submissions are not an accident. I check every deviation that goes into this group, and am very tired of having to remove poetry from our folders over and above my schedule.

If you are both a poetry and prose writer, as am I, please do submit your poetry to our sister group #My-Soul-Bleeds-Ink where it will be happily accepted. Even if you dabble in the wicked ways of writing words that are not in paragraphs; you are writing poetry and it belongs there.

So please, read. I don't put up the 'prose only' sign because I enjoy reading it. If you can write, it stands to reason that you can read too.
