A Banned Plagiaristic Poem
Fourteen Short Observations On Banned Books
Intrroduction
The image is taken from the American Civil Liberties Union which you can visit here.
The only book I have ever thought should be banned is "American Psycho" but to be quite honest banning and burning books is never done by enlightened people. It is usually the act of organisations that look to control populations.
This is a plagiaristic poem taking fourteen titles from the image above with two more to finish the sonnet.
These are books you must read. I have.
My initial piece on my Plagiaristic Poetry is at the end of this piece.

To Kill A Mockingbird Discomfort For Whites Exactly! Books that make people uncomfortable should be available! However problematic, we have to trust readers to be stable enough to read anything they choose to!
I suppose you'll know you've achieved literary success when your work is banned!!!
This fascinates me. I didn't know of a single book banned in Australia. So I looked it up. Australia removed all censorship of books years ago after being labelled the most censored western country! We banned ones even the US and UK hadn't banned! Now we just ban movies, like Gone With The Wind.
I just don't get why these bools are banned. Loved your sonnet!
Nicely uncensored, Mike.
Wonderful. That last line - yup.
A wonderful list of books. I have read many
