You Are Not New

A rant no less.........

You Are Not New

 

 

You are not new

Are you

You are a foul vowel magpie

 

 A plagiarist  

Masquerading as a man of words    

 

You are not new

Are you

You are just another internet predator

 

Getting off and getting high

On other people’s words does it for you

 

You are not new

Are you

New name maybe new facade for sure…

 

Mind the old avatar

Pops up every now and again so why don’t you

Just disappear for good and make our day

…

rant over....

Reviews

[Ghost]

Sounds like you were ranting at someone in particular... But it is a good way to put things out there...

[Neville]

I take it you approve of said rant....it really frustrates and annoys me that some folk have no morals or decency about them.... thanks Neville

[Ghost]

I do approve...

[Vishnu]

Well.... really eye opening if you ask me.

[Neville]

Always keep one open, otherwise they sneak up on ya.... seriously tho, many thanks indeed... Neville

[Annette Pisano-Higley]

Good morning Neville. Great, gutsy and eloquently deadly rant here my friend. “Getting off and getting high on other people’s words”- POW!- Clever, killer, smack-down! Are you sure you’re not from “Da Bronx”- yes, “Neville From The Block” like J-Lo!! Seriously, I have noticed lately that trolls and scavengers are back. Persistent and dirty little buggers- like fleas sucking blood from others. I block them and forget them. Love your rant- do not love the buggers.:(((((

[Neville]

The totality of your response is truly appreciated Annette.... x

[Wild Rose]

No I don't use other work and claim as my own > have had it done to my work
I have had complaints My name in the centre renders them useless for resale

Now my pictures have names in hidden places - where they show if printed out large
Otherwise they are reduced to a ridicules size

You will never stop them

[Neville]

of that I have no doubt....thank you... N

[jacob erin-cilberto]

i guess it is bound to happen...those who can't can with others' words...my feeling is this...those who steal/plagiarize to look good have to lay their heads on the pillow at night and try to sleep....some have no conscience about these things...but it is on them...
those of us who actually write what we write...we know---
i appreciate the words you have said here...

[Neville]

Thank you jacob..............N

[Bare trees]

Being you aren't going to name names, I won't know who to watch out for. I'm sure everyone here has had something of there's stolen at one time. That won't change anytime soon.

[Neville]

I am sure you are right on that score... thanks for the visit... Neville

[emmajoy]

The content of your cleverly worded poem seems to strike a touch of deja vu... some people will never learn that it's only too easy to be utterly negative. So unlike you to rant - but, you do it superbly well. Thank you.

[Neville]

and I thank you... Neville

[emmajoy]

You're welcome. Neville.

[barleygirl]

My goodness! You sure have gotten ramped up in your writing lately – quite a bit of fierceness! – at least the postings of yours that I happen to pounce upon during my intermittent approach! Most of your postings & reviews & interactions show a gentle caress as your overall spirit -- but boy oh boy, don’t ever get this gentle bear riled up, huh? We’ve had this discussion before . . . there are unlimited trolls & plagiarists & just plain a******s roaming the ether. I find it to be a waste of my time & energy to dignify them with a poem – even tho your message is well crafted & suited to ream someone who needs it badly. So, thank you for chasing off these jerks with your sassy slap in the face so I can just muddle along on my clueless journey of creativity *wink! wink!* Stay sweet & don’t spend too much of your creative energy becuz these negativity-mongers are like cancer . . . popping up somewhere else as soon as you think you’ve gotten away from them (((NUGS))) Fondly, Margie

[Neville]

I feel appropriately soothed & thank ya for it.. just dont know what came over me.... b******s....oops there I go again... nug ya and true... Neville

Over 5 years what I am here. I always find funny I saw my expression at another poem. Maybe just accident . But I also sometimes use phrase like from song or from a movies. Or even make movie into poem. I don't know what's your experience there. If you think this person really take your work and make his own. Yiu should speak with that person. I think is good yiu don't mention name cause this person can here became quiet target. I think is great yiu point out something we need talk about . And great flow and nice metaphor with that funny bird. In my country we saying yiu are thief like magpie.

[Neville]

your words really do mean a lot to me my friend.... wise words from a young man... Cheers from this old fella... N

[...]

I am glad they do. I think it's good you expressed your feeling how you did. Cause is not good negative feelings have locked inside of you .

[Neville]

true enough.............N

[Cherrie]

That is so true the only good idea some folks have is set down before them.

[Neville]

Hey, good to see you stranger... thanks ever so much for checking in, tis much appreciated, I can tell ya....N 4 T's & hold the sugar..

[Cherrie]

Anytime, you know me, I'm never short of an opinion

[Neville]

Don't ever change, you would not be the same in my opinion... Neville

[Cherrie]

I am wise enough not to mix politics with my poetry. I like politics served neat no chaser and my poetry shaken not stired.

[Neville]

My kinda woman then........N
