There is a limit, but its tens of thousands of characters long. How long is the poem that you're trying to paste in? Also, what error is it throwing up? -Papa Paczki

In the yellow portion, at the very end of the message in there, if its a character limit issue, it'll say "Your poem can't be longer than 50,000 characters" or something like that. Is that what you're seeing? -Papa Paczki

I am hoping that i dont have to maually type in the poems. that would be t long |

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.
Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
