Ever since moderators were wee childrenthere existed the primal urge to spy on others…
an urge that follows them into their old age!
A moderator’s day will begin at homebase-
in the closet of any willing relative...
During the summer months,a moderator will commandeer any RV that is parked at random
and has a good wireless connection!
The moderator will spend the day
going to great lengths of inventiveness
so they can be at a constant vigil
at their self-appointed task…
look, this one has found a violator, and is sending him a nasty IM...
A moderator is ever seeking out
the latest gizmos and gadgets
to aid in the Eternal Quest…
A moderator is endowedwith a certain personal chemistry!
After a hard day’s workthe successful moderator
will hang out and whoop it up at a very exclusive
downtown Moderator’s Club...
Moderators are born with innate abilitiesthat the rest of us just do not have…
and they enjoy using their powerson us poor, unsuspecting poets!
(psst- and I shouldn't tell you this, butthey are all androids…)
Inside, however, they have soft hearts,and are just lovable teddy bears!

(One for the teddy bears, and ending, and one for the rest of the poem ). Sorry it seems I am a woman of few words in reacting to these poems in this contest, but this is simply amazing. I love the James Bond, spy, adventure, mysteriousness, and yes power aura that you brought out. This had me laughing all the way through, lol. You could turn this into a promotional film for Allpoetry if you could, lol- better yet intro film to mod training, lol. Great job, and thanks for the laughs!

You knew exactly how to get through to my funny bone, I know you did! This is so excellent Wayne!! I don't think I spied on people as a child though. Those ummm.... voyeuristic tendancies didn't manifest themselves until adulthood! This was a delight to read. You always know just how to get to me. Okay... you also have to know that I am stealing the teddy pic! Call if mod privilege! Thank you so much for entering and good luck in the contest!

Im just in in for the night life and the babes. this was awesome, good luck in the contest

LMAO...What a punishment you've bestowed upon me This was really entertaining as most of your work is. I love the graphics. I like that you kept the teddy bald for Ogreatbaldone LOL But I agree, they are all very hardworking, down to earth people regardless of what the rumor is. I wish you the best of luck in the contest.
♥Christina -
Fantastic!
Very enjoyable and entertaining to read and looking at the pictures! I love how the pics are put together and the border as well! Very creative and please share me that border! Where did you get it? Great job! -
the pictures are funny, but distracting. you have a good poem here, but it's hard to hold my attention span still for that long, to understand the pictures and the words at the same time. Maybe it's just me. Good luck in the contest
-
This was an absolute delight to read and peruse over the photo's. Very creative and funny. I think you met the challenge well. Good luck on your entry.

i feel like i just finished watcing and episode of Wild Kingdom. lol. very well put together this deserves a trophy. i never did essays this good in HS, lol. My bio teacher would certainly give you an A+ i tell ya, i wouldnt want to be a mod, especially on this stone throwing site. or should i say pitchforks. i got in one dis with a mod a long time ago and that was it. i got whackedd, i got over it. and i like to think were good friends now. maybe there have been one or two ive had issues with since then but i just avoid trouble and call who i am comfortable with an dhave a history that they have helped me. and for the most part i have never had one let me down. they were alwyas quick, as they could be. courteous and professional. i would not make a good mod because i am too tempermental, lol. i barely have the patience to stay on this site let alone be a mod. so they all get my thumbs up. that anyone could put up with me definietly gets my thumbs up. hm..... maybe i should call my mother.

Lol oh this was a fun read.
