It is now a requirement to display a picture of sorts if one wants to have one's poems displayed. This was brought to you as a public service.

Faux-Pas

The cause of it, the failure of the system to display,
at last has been discovered, just in time,
one contemplates his options, one's to go away,
to post where they appreciate a bit of rhyme.
So, who was told that there was need for a visage
a photo to identify and maybe to cause smiles,
quick to comply I rushed to post a petit lavage
and watched the powers to unlock their sacred files.
I beg forgiveness to be tardy in my ways,
to not keep up on new developments and tools,
and as the palm tree near my cabin slowly sways
I light a smile that says the world is full of fools.
