WHY I AM LEAVING POETBAY

Hey people!

I want to say the truth why I am leaving Poetbay. And that is this: I posted a poem here, and everyone 'hypocritically' commented on it by flattering me, that is 'beautiful' and all whatnot, without making an honest critique. Today, this poem has been criticised properly, and I have understood that almost everyone here is not genuine, including me.

Two: I will be moving to Hawaii next week; we are going into the mountains as travel writers and don't even know when we would be returning. (Ha-ha)---so I guessed it would be tough for me to post anything here---

Three: I am extremely busy now, racking my brain for the column I compile in the Guardian---and would not want to post some lousy and incompetent poems here---

Four: I want to take time and meet some of my friends before I return to England. (Ha-ha, even you all). And I would be visiting my grandmother's graveyard this week, to pay my homage. We were the best friends in the world, while she was alive.

Five: I have four blogs, which I have to update---and some Poetbay poets abused me in some indomitable way, so I guessed I should just waka pass....LOL
