This is a real problem. Even human-written poetry can get flagged if it's simple and clean. We're working on improving accuracy for our detector (AI Button) and open-sourcing our dataset so researchers can tackle false positives. What detector did you use? Would be great to test it against our dataset.

Used a free AI detector on a poem and it flagged my own work
I ran a poem I wrote in 2018 through a popular online checker, and it came back as 92% likely AI. The only thing I can think of is that I used very clean, simple language. Has anyone else had a human piece wrongly flagged, and what did you do about it?

Those checkers are basically random number generators. Your own work getting flagged proves they're useless.

Saw a tech writer mention this exact thing last week. He said detectors often trip on short, clear sentences because a lot of AI training data is just clean web writing. Maybe your poem was too well edited and lost the "human mess" those tools look for.
