:Guide rules for posting coming soon:
Literature isn't modified like our blockbuster movies or TV and so it would be very short-minded to say that you can't post your work if it contains bad language, violence or sex. However, we have to take into consideration that poetry is a hobby--whether you're in school or retired, you have every right to share your work he as you have envisioned it. With this in mind, when posting your own poetry the rules of the board are suspended. Instead, you are required to used one of these guidelines in your thread topic.
SA (suitable for all) - Any age can read this poem, it is free from swearing, sexual content and violence.
12 (Recommended for readers 12 and above) - May contain sexual innuendo, mild language and/or violence.
15 (Recommended for readers 15 and above) - May contain scenes of a sexual nature, frequent swearing and moderate violence.
18 (Recommended for adult readers) - May contain frequent swearing, strong violence and scenes of a sexual nature.
It seems silly, but we don't want to scar our youth for life! ((Although I'm sure they go looking for it!))
