How do you delete posts on facebook if there are no icons?

[Fiona]

such as the faint pencil or the cross in the top right hand corner ? I posted these but now want rid but I can't alter the audience or even delete !! Please help, thanks :-)

lol that's why i left facebook. it's a trap! Facebook plans to keep all the data forever!!

it depends on where you posted these things... and you didnt explain that

if you posted them on your own profile, you click the X, not the pencil
