Ripoff scandal! Please tell me how to delete my poetry from poetry.com

Education & Science

I have been stupid and put my poetry on poetry.com, I have read that there is a way to delete your poetry but I cannot find a way myself. Since I posted my poetry I have been sent letters saying that I was a semi-finalist and that they had given the following: "The Board of Trustees unanimously agrees to award you with a free Associate Membership in our society." from these emails:

When I followed the link they asked me to pay quite an high ammount of money... So I left the website...
Then I received another email saying the following:
"You may submit any poem that you have written for this one-of-a-kind, personal poetry review from our professional editorial staff (...) Since we are only accepting a limited number of poems, we must charge a nominal fee..."

And then another email saying "Imagine..."The winner of $20,000.00, a $10,000.00 book publishing contract, and our next Poet of the Year is Alessandra Palange!" inviting me to Las Vegas or something. I emailed them to tell them that I was not interested in their products and I never received any reply...

This is not just a rip off, it is Ridiculously stupid, they offered me gold pens, a crystal trophy... I DONT WANT TO GET RICH WITH MY POEMS, I just want people to know what they think about them... I think these people are exploiting not only the dreams of young artists but also the needs of non-rich, working people. They ask you to pay and you make a sacrifice just because you think... Hey I could earn much more out of it... ITS A RIP OFF...

Now i am asking any of you who fell in the same trap to help me!!! I need to know if and how i can delete my poetry from there... I am ashamed to have been so naive... They are not interested in my work and i don't want my poetry to be in there... If you want to read my poetry; just out of curiosity and leave a message you can go on the following website:
