Poems of Ted
Is Ted removing all his poems,
so nothing’s left when he is gone,
no air o’ Ted to linger on?
Or was it done in fit of pique,
to reappear when will turns weak?
And should we hope or should we dread,
for re-return of poems by Ted?

Yeah, that was not a nice thing to do,
what that Ted did...
deleting all his poems.

| I don't think he thinks the site will last long and so, I'm guessing, he doesn't want his poems to disappear into the ether.

Oh....Ted. I hope you have them saved so you can email me them. Was just working my way back through the ones I'd previously missed.

Ben, all my poems posted in KP are in my files, so I can send any you want by email attachment.
David has the reason for my deletion, but I did announce that plainly at the time.
But, I miss most the camaraderie we once had, good examples of that relic are plain to find for anyone who will spare the time to look through the members' postings in my old "Ted's Shed." A time for tears, really, especially as some of our members have passed on.
The key to that camaraderie was plainly our King, who appears to have abdicated again. Ted.

Ted, I still don't understand why you deleted them?
Would it be good or bad if we all started doing the same thing?

Actually, I don't get the point. There is no difference between cut and paste and copy and paste.

| According to Graeme, the site is technically self-sustaining, so there is no danger of it disappearing anytime soon.

so let's fix that problem ( non-self-sustaining-site )....how do we do that?
any ideas?
grab people off the streets?
advertise on our facebook page?
put nekkid poet pics up? 
write good poetry?
write bad poetry?
write sad poetry?
write limericks by the trillions?
