Everything is Broken - 02/06/2018
by V. Blake
As I write this, I don't actually know if it will post successfully. Let's see.
Sorry to report that the owner of this website has abandoned it. We owe him eternal gratitude for all the work that went into building it in the first place, and for continuing to foot the bill that keeps it online at all. That said: we apologize for the bugs, but there's nothing we can do to fix them.
CURRENT MEMBERS:
Keep steady backups of your poetry. And everything else--that's just practical advice for a digital world.
In case you didn't realize, private messaging does not work. Your messages are not reaching their recipients.
The moderators can pick poems of the day. That's about it for our powers.
APPLICANTS:
I am sorry. Site errors will prevent me from making you a member. I promise that we'd have welcomed you to this community if we could.

I guess that's it. Hope you're having a good day.
The Pathetic Book of Poetry - 04/08/2014
by V. Blake
Our very own Jody Pratt was cool enough to put together a book of poetry using submissions from Pathetic members. Read more about it in the forums--you can even just click this link if you're feeling lazy, so no excuses.
Thanks go out to Jody for his efforts and to everyone who submitted their work to make it possible. Go get yourself a copy!

The site has been moved to a new server which should address the ongoing login issues for the past week or so.

Scarecrow by Frankie Sanchez and Steven Kenworthy

Everyone else! (Sorry. The submissions were too few to warrant runner-up selections!)

Poem of the Day for 04/27/18
Lasting Lingering
by Anita Mac
I still think about
that Moment
when your eyes stopped looking.
I still wonder
what was that last thing and
how you found it so wanting.
I stopped telling people
that I miss you.
So constant, I'm
rarely aware.
It's there though.
Every tattoo.
Every bite of truly good food.
Every Shema held in my head
like a Meditation
on how I might have loved you.
I hesitate to grant hindsight such romanticism. 07/13/2017 Visit Anita Mac's Library
