AMAZED!! A Sassy Sonnet in Septameter,
Dear David,
I've just looked through your favourites' list
and I am quite amazed!!
In fact, I freely must admit, I'm left completely fazed!
For in that list of poets, (numb'ring over twenty-three),
One HUGE omission hits my eye and that default is ME!!
Perhaps you couldn't spell my name? - Good reason on its own,
But this has left your list, alas, completely lacking tone.
For if the best of AP's poets you would now include
You MUST have HUGH WYLES in it. (You're in mine, so don't be rude!!)
Perhaps my writing sickens you - it's not your sassy style;
I can write damn good humour making lots of readers smile.
You'll have heard about my "harem" (which now numbers twenty-five)
Well, although you're hardly qualified, at least you can 'get live'!
So before another day is out and I get really pissed
Get off your arse and type my name into your f...ing list!!

lol, except that its not quite a sonnet (but who cares) and I have absolutely no idea what septametre is, this is one of the best pieces entered (well I've read about 6). Completely vain in an ass kicking way. The only way this could have been funnier was if you were this vain with a totally horrible poem, but hey, then we would be laughing at you and not your poem

Hahah!!! Wow I love this. I think more people need to get off their arses once in awhile lol

AHAHHAHAAAAHHAHAHAHHHAHAHAAHHA, this was great!! Very funny to read, the last two lines had me practically rolling. Great job here; good luck.

Apart from some unintentional howlers I have read in this comp, this is one of the few entries that made me burst out laughing. I don’t think it requires too a scrutiny except to say your inclusion on my favourites is well overdue. Thanks for the laugh- I needed it!
