'Thee-Arch Con-Test' Poem by Charles Monroe

'Thee-Arch Con-Test'



Oh how ludicrous the fee,
Guessing contests aren't for free.
Dare I invite every one
But my contest is for fun.
Put first prize to this effect:
You shall win your self respect
Second Prize: What you have won...
To beat all; except for One.
Last, but definitely not First
Third Price means you weren't the worst.
Everyone's a winner here
The best contest of the year.
With thee lowest, lowest fee
Oh, you thought it was for free? !
I was joking, free it is...
Contests are for CON-TEST-TENTS!
Especially if its a fee.
Poets from the land of FREE.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Inspired by the ridiculous ENTRY FEES for these, ill inspired poetry CONtests that are posted on the WWW. We do appreciate the forethought and the ends as far as art, but, if to hustle is your intent, bad job at it. However, if your intentions are to genuinely facilitate a match of Letters and Quills, then it should be done in a manner so as every one receives an equally, fair chance; no bias, no b.s., no fee. Let the Prize be the prizes Bee! ?
