Here at the Pub, we want to allow all of our Poets to have the freedom to write and express themselves in any way possible.
But we also want to develop an atmosphere of inspiration, dedication, freedom and peace.
We see no boarders, no colour, no religion, no gender, no age or language.
We simply want to promote Poetry.
But, in the same breath, we have to put some restrictions on content.
I will not post poems that promote or reflect the following ...
- self harm
- suicide (by the individual writing the poem. If the poem is a remembrance of someone who died that way, I will consider)
- prejudice (including hatred against other peoples or religions, social standings, physical structure, or mental capacity)
- abuse (spousal abuse, child abuse, abuse against animals)
I reserve the right to refuse the publication of any poems here at the Pub.
You can appeal my decision and I will present the poem to a panel of Pub members who will make the decision, without prejudice.
I apologize if this upsets anyone, but these are things I cannot accept in the atmosphere of what I have created here at the Pub.+
Please let me know what you think.
Bill
