What is the DM forum for i just had my poem sent there (or closed) will it be reposted in the adult
forum or what.  The e-mail I recieved said to review the guidelines i have since done this and The poem although strong i would not have considered as sensationalisation of violence it was not written merely to shock either.anyone who has read any poem i have written knows i get a bit morbid and i admit I should have got this posted in adult forum but if it has been simply closed i consider that an overeaction a lot of work went into it and the wording was well thought out and having it moved and or closed without an explanation of what your going  to do with it hurts

From the Guidelines:
quote:
We believe that words have power. We also believe that ALL human life is precious and should be protected. Any poetry or prose that condones or promotes hate or violence will be removed from the site immediately.

Open promotion of hate or violence is pretty cut and dried, and rarely a problem. But advocating harm to a human being can also be subtle. Depicting a scene or scenario where a human is harmed, without showing the repercussions to both parties, is just as dangerous as open promotion.

Forget it i am over stressed over worked and over sensitive and my poems tend to be a little part of me losing one hurts

The very deep did rot: O Christ!

Yea, slimy things did crawl with legs
Upon the slimy sea.

Your poem isn't lost - It's just not remaining on our boards.  I've sent you a copy via email in case  you didn't save it for yourself...
