Taking without Thanks

Folder: 
Frustration

Shame, shame for copying

The title from my German poem

“Für Immer Verloren”

Not that I have much against

However,

“A source acknowledgement”

Of the caption text

Could spare hurt, that beat

One down increases heartaches.

Well,

I am sorry that

This is the only way

Have to protest.

Might is right

Over what others write

Leave the only

Possibility

Weep in the quiet.

But not without

Vehement Protest written!

How about bits give and take, why not?

To the original writer, copyright owners

Next, time but just a word of thanks not cash

Shall never, the pinchers ever make poor but rich!

Author's Notes/Comments: 

To tolerate incorrect is not correct! Thus had to protest via my Dear PostPoems...Not that I write great and perfect in a foreign language  but to see the same rejected from protectionist judges, however, then pinched and latched on to a tragic documentary film piece is height of unfair tactic!
