Manipulater!

Svengali

You are a cretin,

a cur,

a carbuncle

upon the face

of this good earth.

You treat decent people

like microbes

vacuuming them up

in your phagocytising

psychoses.

Your band of infected

followers hypnotised

by a modern day

Anton Bosnyak 

who dominates, manipulates

and controls poets.

Your gross impertinence,

cynical humour, with

its mistimed, derisive

and malicious intent,

has no justification in this

place of harmony

and creation.

You have penned down a wonderful poem John.A dark and beautiful one.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Thank you so much Mirab.

[andrew mitchell]

John , if I ever need some dark menacing words for my writes I'm coming to you. Fantastic write that slips right under the radar!!!!

[Lyn Anderson]

Some pustules just need to be excised.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

True and we plan major surgery!

I recently wrote a poem about nothing other than what I was having for lunch that day, while thinking about someone I love, someone read it and thought I was speaking of the Jewish word kosher (in my youth kosher was a word that meant cool)
"it's kosher man" mean't "it's cool man!" so it is a prime example of perception once again, the persecuted will always find offence where there is none, but that doesn't mean they do not have the right to write. everyone has the freedom of speech, whether we agree with their words or not, whether we understand them, or interpret them in a way they weren't meant, it happens. But I have to agree some poems are offensive and are meant to be offensive,

[John Alexander McFadyen]

I totally agree, although this is about a troll on this site and not poetry. Thank you Corset!

[Corset]

oh no, not more trolls!

[John Alexander McFadyen]

There have been a few serious ones on here. KTlittle AKA (see my post 'Snake') Dave Demers is the worst.

but... his/her writing ability/talent can not be denied, I prefer to remain neutral, like Switzerland, we can always block.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

That is my usual stance too. But I lost an amazing friend, Frieda Pickle, to this monster and then he started attacking me. I am unsure of his writing. he accuses everyone he attacks of plagiarism, perhaps this is projection and he is in fact the plagiarist?

[John Alexander McFadyen]

PS neutrality, in itself laudable, allowed the extermination of the Jews, almost a million deaths in the Rwanda genocide and is currently seeing the death of hundreds of thousands of Syrians.

[Corset]

You did not loose a friend because of someone else, you lost a friend because she chose to leave, but I do imagine dear Pickle is well and about, not to worry she's a tough cookie.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

She was someone I dearly miss. She was part of my life even though simply the on-line side. don't get it wrong we used to argue and fall out frequently. To see her hounded out was painful. And some people are sensitive and cannot take such sustained personal attacks. Especially when others are garnered to support them.

[Corset]

well then, hopefully she will see this thread and how much you miss her and come back to you, or at least make her presence known to you.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Me thinks she has flown the nest for less ethereal matters. I have many people that matter, including on here and I judge not until I am forced to!
