A Poet Wronged
- by The Vestibular Bard

An epic battle, fought today.
A poet wronged, with much to say.
Assumed the role of vindicator
Lashed out at, yon moderator.

In his corner, stood Axi Newb,
Rhyming badly, with words quite lewd.
And waiting by, quite patiently,
Yon moderator, we call 'Sea'.

The Newbie was the first to strike,
With poetry quite impolite.
Yon moderator took the blow,
And told the Newb, where he should go.

The Newb cried out; “Freedom of Speech!”
His Constitution, out of reach.
“This censorship...it’s just not right!”
"I wish I could afford this site!"

The Sea was calm, and self effacing,
The Newbie’s rhyme, just done erasing,
It seems Newb failed to estimate...
The Sea’s "freedom…

…to moderate."
