Rub One Out

To clear away misunderstandings. This poem is about me. My feelings on watching my words given in care and the spirit of friendship being deleted from public Internet sites.

Where words stood
I am no more
Little pink stub
Scrubbing away
All that was me
Transformed to Specter
Haunting the place
In your memories
A veritable stain
You can't erase

Author's Note

A bit of wordplay when it came to the title.
-grin-
If you were expecting/hoping for something else, sorry.

I really liked this work and that is what I came down here to say, but your author's note made me roll! Ha! Guilty as charged!

[Rogue]

-grin- thank you, Angi. I appreciate you both reading and reviewing. :)

To the Author's Note - Ooooooo, but you DID know what some would think and let them! - now didn't you?...chuckling here.

Vanishing works, comments, and disagreeable thoughts has long been a "truth" that some seem to believe they alone control. It always bites when I find it being done.

[Rogue]

It does indeed. I don't mind those who delete their own words.. But leave mine alone. :)

[JR Darewood]

actually I'm pleasantly surprised that it wasn't a dirty poem. Being deleted is kind of a crazy concept, isn't it?

[Pollai]

Really nice, have to admit you used the title in a really clever fashion :)

[Rogue]

Thank you. :) and thank you for reading.

[Shelina Shariff-Zia]

I loved this. Very clever and witty.

[Rogue]

Thank you. I appreciate you reading and leaving a review. :)

I sounds to me that your character passed away ( I hope it is not you ...Lol ) and left her ghost( Specter ) there to haunt or be in his memory forever.
Another one of your great writes ...:)
By the way ; A good word play too...:)

[Rogue]

I am still breathing, Sami. :)
Thanks for everything.. I was a bit..ermmm.. Fast and loose with the naming of this piece. :D

[Sami Khalil]

It is good and different too...:)

[Rogue]

Thank you again. Wasn't happy with that first line. Much better to me now. :)
