Poetry.com is a scam. They let every poem be in their books, but of course they beg you to buy the book to see your work.
They accept everyone.

Scam! Avoid them like the plague! They will publish you all right, and then you end up having to buy your own book full of third rate poetry (And worse) wrapped around your piece buried somewhere between page 1 and 1000. They will PUBLISH ANYTHING FROM ANYONE ON ANY SUBJECT so long as they think it will get the author(s) to buy the book.
Try Pathetic.org instead. Its a poetry circle full of sub-circles where you can maintain a library of your works, receiving honest feedback from a boat load of members.
