Appreciate your words so much, Ella Canta. O

Shall I share that one publication refused the poem on the basis that it constituted 'derogatory or hate speech', and then the second publication that had accepted it, got scared on my telling them this myself and they gave backward on accepting the poem.

It was disappointing.

As if to speak up /expose against trickery, deception, bullying, and coercive control is wrong or a form of 'hate speech'.
