Debating

I've recently been debating whether or not to remove all the actual poetry from this site. This is my reasoning: I am preparing to begin submitting my work (some of these included) to journals or other publications. The question I am asking myself is this: If I placed a poem on this blog, would that count as "previously published?" While I intend this forum as more a place to get feedback on these poems, that has not really been happening... So would this count as 'publication' or not? I have no actual idea about the answer to that, but it has been bugging me, which is why I've not put several newer poems up... I think I need professional help with this one.
