Ode to Thievery

Are you worthy of a sonnet, prose or poem or quotation?

Are you worthy of the words composed for lovers near and close, afar?

Are you worthy of the sentiments fashioned from my erotic longings, from my fair body glowing, from my flesh naked in the dark?

Are you worthy of this moment, of this space, of this here pity for your turn of phrase clearly wanting, your pen bone dry, your keyboard useless, rusty?

Are you worthy of the interest, of the fame, renown, the limelight, of the beam created from my pure, white-hot contempt?

Are you worthy of this carnality, this intense, soft femininity, this sensuality overwhelming, this woman unique?

Are you worthy? Are you worthy? Are you worthy?

Dear thieving, pilfering plagiarist, I fear that you are not.

I'm afraid that it's his robot that you're writing to.

What happened?

Mamba: Thankfully not any longer. But I'll keep you in mind for the next transgression if that's all right. I like having a wise guy on side... x

Os: Actually, it isn't! I've had actual human contact. More below... x

southerngirl: Hello, lovely lady. It's wonderful to see you in these parts once again. This is a combination of that scandalous site and another. Like you, it irks me greatly too... x

Frenchy: Well, my dear, make yourself comfortable and I'll try to be short and sweet...

This week, not one but two sites using my material without permission were brought to my attention. The first is the one attracting notoriety...everywhere. I've been in touch with the site's creator and now most of my material has been erased.

The second was a different case all together because it was a blog that had lifted around eighteen of my pieces and changed pronouns in order to stay true to the blog's theme. Aside from a solitary link on one piece, everything else was being passed off as the blog author's own creation (or as words found "on the web"). Thankfully, my material has been deleted and I've received an apology.

On the upside, this has allowed me to pen a little ditty to file under the rarely used 'Hate' label... x

I do believe I should be the one extending my thanks for your generous praise, Veritas. Welcome to my Cake...

Max said...

Ouch. Imitation maybe the sincerest form of flattery, but that's just wrong. I'm with Mamba, just tell us who, and we'll get them. :-)

Cheeky Minx said...

Ah, Max... You certainly know how to make a girl feel protected. Since I've received an apology and the material deleted, I'll reserve your generosity and chivalry for another day... ;-)

Oops, just read the comments, so all has been restored and apologies forthcoming, excellent. I am glad I didn't need to send the boys round!

Cheeky Minx said...

I'm happy to report all is well and sorted, S. Although, I might keep you in mind if I ever need the assistance of your boys... :-)
