    I hate to tell you this but poetry.com is a scam. You have to buy a book. They tell everyone the same thing. My friend entered on poetry.com and was scammed.

    They will want you to buy this book at some crazy cost and then you never get the book. Big scam I have heard someone on here say once that they payed for the book and never received it. They are good about getting peoples hopes up! Sorry about that I know it's disappointing! My friend went through the same thing.

    I won once with "my affair" and they said it was published but I had to buy the book...I never did but it does sound like a scam
