Rather than rewrite an explanation, here's a basic transcript of Mike and my PMS....
Mike Wrecka:
we have caught you recycling. that is automatic DQ bro what happened?
please explain yourself before I make a decision
__________
Me:
Recycling this week? And from where, granted, I did use some shit I had saved on my computer from a while ago, and heavily edited it, but as far as I remember its never been posted online, which I thought was ok. As for an explanation, I've got interviews all week and home repairs to do so I wasn't going to have time to come up with anything near good enough to match pancake, I'll gladly write something new if the DQ is avoidable.

Mike:
it was posted here.

I do see that you heavily edited it. at what you mean this week? you have done this before ?

Me:
I would never try to pass something off I had posted on another forum. I honestly didn't remember having put that on ughh... For real though, good find (i'm assuming outzyda remembered it? Which I take as a compliment being over 2.5 years ago), I had forgotten I ever even posted on that site, and it being an open Mic format regardless, I was under the impression that type of recycling was allowed as it wasn't a battle
When I asked if it was this week was because I have a shit ton of snippets and rhyme schemes catalogued in my brain as well my computer, a couple times I've pulled a line or a set of rhymes and made them to fit the topic and I've probably posted a few of the quips on my facebook, as for whole pieces, never, but this chunk

If the end is the beginning, and the beginning is the end, then I was dead before I ever breathed. Now I gotta live this all again.
Just another day in the life of a common man without one, the sunrays rise, complacent, trite, laughing in the face of the proud son
*
I had in my mind for a while, intended it to be a chorus, and I do remember posting it on facebook a long time ago
I'll take the DQ if I have to, but yea, if not, I'll gladly write something new

I mean, it was less than half, but still...
No butthurting, I'll still be voting and back next week
