The Plagiarist (My USB)

The fake,
The hollow fake;
The Impostor.

The one-dimensional one;-
Shallow as a wading pool.

The empty vessel.

The one, who puts on another's robes;
But who, underneath, is just a monkey.

The one who wishes,
To turn the freely given;
To a profit.

The one, with no discernible talent;
Will be exposed.

Beware, the anti-plagiarism software;
Beware, the originals, on my USB.

Beware, the original Time and Date Stamps;
Beware, the CS Copyright Warning.

Beware!

About this poem:
For those who cut/copy/paste/print out another's original work, from this site; and claim it as their own.

Advice to other (original) CS poets: copy your work, to your own personal USB
(or similar) as soon as you post.

I have just looked at time of viewing stats for my work here; and seen that about 40 of my poems have been "viewed" in the space of ten minutes, which, to put it mildly, is pretty far-fetched. This leads me to suspect, that some mischief is at play here (I may be wrong).

I save to my computer - post on Facebook - and their posted in the Newark Valley Moonlighter most of them. Try to remember to update my Flash drive too. Every once in a while I google a few words to make sure they don't pop up anywhere else on the computer.

Thanks for the advice LCBR! Have you told the CS poetry section staff your concerns?

Oops - I mean "Don't show up anywhere else on the Internet" not computer.

Thanks, Kathy,

Good advice here. I can't really say, or complain, about it, because I have no proof. This poem, is mainly to advise other (original) poets on here, how better to protect their work. I see you have added a few extra tips here, and thanks for that; great advice, take care...bouquet

Stealing , a common criminal!
A theif , with no respect!
Heart full of evil !
A soul so empty
Who needs to
Pillage!
What a pitiful thing !


Thank f or your thoughts ! thumbs up

Yes; all of the above; plus a basic lack of character, talent, and substance (in the plagiarist). Thank you, for you comment.

Most Poets, (here on CS), put a lot of time, and effort, into their work. In many cases, it is their life's work, to build up a body of work, here; so I felt it was important to write this poem.

I send mine to myself via email. it's date and time stamped, so is a good proof of ownership.

You may be surprised, dear poet, but I don't think my poems are a big deal, so if they are somehow stolen (for whatever reason, but I very much doubt that they will be) and if they appear somewhere else under someone else's name, which will be funny, I won't even mind. But this is only concerning my poems. In all other respects your point is well taken and I thank you for sharing!thumbs up tip hat

Google instructions: copy to USB....the process is very easy, and only takes a few steps....

Looking forward to reading some of your work ,(if you choose to publish it, here)....

Btw, thanks for the comment...bouquet

Your USB should be regarded as your own "personal copy only" (to prove original authorship)....it should NOT be used for wider dissemination to other websites...professor
