Thanking The Troll Poem by Tom Billsborough

Thanking The Troll



It's clear you cannot read
you silly little weed.
Eighty points you've gifted me..
Carry on, thicko!
Tra la la.. Ta la lee...
My toatal's rising quicko!

Trolls giveth but the site doesn't.. My closest estimate is that I have been denied over 6800 points in the last month or so. Kinda makes me hope I get trolled too. : -)

There have been a few blank days recently. My losses have been slight (approx 1000) compared to yours but I would expect that as you are a much better writer than me. PH seem incapable of getting their house in order and never reply anyway. If the points system is to be continued, it must be managed properly. In my case, apart from missed days, my actual monthly totals aas per PH add up to more than 2000 more than my current Treasure Island Score. I did once send a message requesting that they should double the banana ration for the Chimps who clearly manage that aspect of their operation but no reply! You have my sympathy but people who matter value your work anyway. Tom

Ha! Love it! Your total is rising very quickly...because you're a gifted poet, the right reason, in my opinion! :) I look forward to your newest translation next...

I'm not bothered about the point thing for myself but, oddly, enough there is a way of turning the weapon on these idiots. If you know of anyone who has had a Troll attack let me know and I'll happy to explain the technoque! My main point is that this chump is actually doing us a favour. The one thing I take account of is when someone thinks enough of my poem to include it in their favourites. This gives me a better idea of which ones are hitting the mark. what I enjoy most is reading other members' work and occasionally discovering a new writer whose work gives me pleasure. These trolls are a nuisance but if I show these deranged people that they are the losers, maybe they will disappear back into their dark holes. On your other point, I'm hoping to do some more Lorca translations and some more of Lou and pise Labe's work in the next few days pand possibly other French and Spanish poets. At the moment my Spanish collection has picked up my keys' recent habit of hiding but search parties have been sent out! Tom
