hi everyone, im sure all you poets are just simply beautiful people who were sickly lied to by these creeps or whoever they are.

thank god I found all of you, im sorry this is so bogust.
I feel like a fool. Today I received that deceitful letter

We all got saying you are in the semifinals for your poem, and I was so excited, I wrote a poem for my dad who died 2 years ago.

i understand others here said they also wrote poetry for their departed loved ones!

I received it today and told family and friends, they were so happy to think that my poem won!! For our daddy!!

My bubble is so bursted, I thought wow I'm on a roll, I wrote 4 more poems, thinking I was so talented, now I feel like a fool!!

Thank god I didnt send money and now I hope these con artists rot in hell for taken advantage of someone's pain!!!!

God bless you all! and don't worry just a quick verse lol...

Every dog has his fu...... day!!!!

What was the ripoff?

I don't see a rip-off. They sent you a letter saying that you're in a semi-final contest? You interpreted that as winning?

Semi-final means that you were selected out of THOUSANDS or MILLIONS to be in a contest of a fraction of that.
Perhaps a semi-final contest of a hundred, a thousand or less or more.

It seems like you ripped yourself off.

I'm sure it is a very good poem, however - contests are contests. Everyone doesn't win.

I would suggest that the letter they sent you is a fine recognition of your talent, and also implies a regard for your late father.

If you did not buy whatever they were selling you, fine - but you weren't ripped off... and you have no evidence that they ever attempted to rip you off.
They don't seem to deserve such a bad wrap.

Also, those sweepstakes letters everyone gets in the mail should be regarded lightly too.
And the lottery is not a sure thing.

Good luck with poetry, I'm sure you're talented.
I'm sorry to hear about your father, too.
He's lucky to have a fine poet for a son.
And a fine poem commemorating his fine life.

Be well.
