I have added a second version that shows no cover.
Only want the one that shows the cover.
Can the cover-less version please be deleted? Thank you.

I self-published a poetry chapbook "4:41" when I was 17, but it was a rather foolish decision. For starters, I wasn't serious about being a poet at the time. In fact, I was mostly concerned about boosting my chances for college admissions. Additionally, I put poems in there about people close to me, and it ended up harming a lot of relationships; finally, the poems are rather immature and poorly written, and showcase an awful side of my work which could hinder me from publishing my current manuscript-in-progress. I've removed the work almost everywhere on the internet, but goodreads' rather strict policy on archiving published works makes me haunted by my teenage mistakes.
I later put out a miniseries, "Late Night Drives," which was privately shared and added to Goodreads without my consent. Again, this work is not something I want attributed to me, as someone trying to build a (now) serious career.
Anything I can do to scrub these titles off the internet, I'll do. There are some things I can't fix, like how 4:41 has an isbn, but i'm working on burying this information as much as I can. I recognize the importance of archiving work, but I also worry about how the decisions of a rash, unformed, 17 year old self might hold me back.
Any advice? I can offer additional details and contact info if needed. Thank you!
Signed,
A regretful poet

I need to delete a duplicate listing (it's not a new edition).
This is the link to the extra listing.

Sean, I would write what you have told us here to Support. They would have to be the ones to make a decision.

These two are identical. And this
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
is an alternative cover for them.
I separated these three and combined them.
