Consultation =========== When ever I meet a doctor He
reels out health care tips To contain my prescribed
nuances I usually bother about my body and its health
But in my day time routine jaunts I take junk food
with no option ahead When after dusk I resort to my
dinner times I carefully verify The nutrition facts of
The packets and cut them and preserve After having
sumptuous puddings over night I owe a lot to the
doctor And swear on him To follow his directions from
the next day Which has never come till date.

Supani,

Type 'circleofpoets scam' into Google and do the search!

It appears that circleofpoets may be carrying out the same sort of activities as poetry.com did a year or two ago (they may still be doing it).

It seems to be a scam.
They will publish anything that is written for anybody who will pay $40 or so!

I won prizes at poetry.com but would have had to attend in America (from the UK) to receive them!
It would have cost me 10 times the prize value to have them posted to me!
Some people entered absolute jibberish and won prizes - they were unbelievable nonsense!

Take care, Bill.
Dan
anybody who tells you that you must pay them in order to get paid or to give away intellectual property is a SCAM
