If you think you might get upset and discouraged by having your work deleted, I would suggest not posting poetry. Like I said before we're very tough on poetry and if you don't know how to write them that could be bad.

Poetry is extremely hard to write. Rhyming isn't important, poems don't have to rhyme, but they do need a meter.Story telling is irrelevant. If you want to tell a story, write a story. Not that poems can't have stories, but it's not a key element. Poetry is much more about central imagery and emotion.

It was just a day or so ago where you wanted to give up writing because your stuff was getting deleted. I just wanted to give you fair warning that poetry is deleted pretty regularly.
