You may have to do a 2 or 3 part poem. Many of my long poems are like this:

Poem (Part 1 of 3)
Poem (Part 2 of 3)
Poem (Part 3 of 3)

That works too, the only problem is that people normally vote on part 3 and the other two dont stay with it in the highly rated section, if it gets there, but people may get the hint and read part 1 and 2 first. Just a tip...

aaah! thts sad :( i'd never want to do this...

no help anyone else... :(

Yeah, I think you should divide it. Sometimes, the reader gets put off when they see the length of a poem. Not all but, some.

none else to help me out???

heartily thnx. to mr. mark spencer! i got the solution. a big brother hug to him!

glad you got it worked out amit! how did you do it??? I just thought of this the other day... did you have to post part of it and then edit in the rest?

hi marie, and everyone

here is the mail from mr. mark spencer, author of the poem 'the visitor'...

"Poems-And-Quotes has a limit on length for new poems. The trick is to post only the first stanza, so the poem is accepted. Then edit the already posted piece by adding the rest. It will post then. Good luck.

Mark Spencer"

thanks to him!

hope it'll help you all people!
