"Find out what others say about your poetry"

   Oh, look! More correspondence from Poetry.com. Actually, this one claims to be from "The Poetry Workshop," which, coincidentally, has the exact same address as Poetry.com. This one sounds much more benign than previous missives. Do not be deceived, they are merely maintaining contact; keeping all avenues of potential revenue open. Make no mistake, Poetry.com exists for the sole purpose of taking your money. For more information, click on the poetry.com link over in the side bar. There's some eye opening information available.

Dear Paul,

Ever wonder what other people think about your poetry?

Do you have the artistic ability to emotionally affect others with your words?

Would you like to get highly personal and honest feedback that will help you improve your craft?

Would you like to make lots of friends with whom you can share stimulating discussions about your poetry?

Would you like to win actual physical awards with real monetary value for your poetic efforts?

Now your poetry can be published on The Poets' Workshop--where, within minutes, you can receive feedback from other poets and writers on the quality and character of your work. Honest, forthright and helpful reviews that will help you hone your craft, and will quickly move you into the ranks of world class emerging poets with solid critiques behind their works.
