Welcome to reality!
our guests tonight are indeed
ready to meet the audience
but before that you need to know
our winner here tonight
leaves with the girl that hunts him
yes folks - you heard me
SHE's HUNTING HIM!
these contestants have no clue at all
its our little secret!

I'm you host (ominous voice) "the fates"
our first contestant is from out of town
let's bring him in
(audience claps wildly and hoots)
meet -.-.-so and so.-.-.-
next we have .-.such and such.-.
and finally --..--you--..--
now let's cut to a commercial!

welcome back, during the break
many interesting things happened
players 1 and 2 are in a heated discussion
watch the footage!

#1 (so and so):
no you cant treat a girl like that. You need to finess them
show her a good time!

#2 (such and such):
they all want one thing and they're sizing you up the minute
you lay eyes on them or say hello. You and I both know it bud
there's no in between - you're tactics only work if they've
eye googled you for more than 2 seconds

interesting isnt it? I know folks, I know
but strangely enough, during all this fuss
our final player has gone missing!
yeah the action continues!
this has got to be one of our craziest shows ever!
``````````````````````````

"I've heard enough of that"
- "yeh me too"

Reality is what's happening while you're watching it pass by you


Author notes

ive read and commented on one of your poems (i read both that you recommended in the contest outline, but i commented on one..I'm sure you're aware of that)

societal values
we're only in it for something in return (greater or equal)

you're the player you're in the game
what's it to you till you make your own name?

    this was so very cool! I loved the way you wrote this, and how it made me laugh, yet kinda like a reality tv show-it keeps you interested.
    I loved this:

    #2 (such and such):
    they all want one thing and they're sizing you up the minute
    you lay eyes on them or say hello. You and I both know it bud
    there's no in between - you're tactics only work if they've
    eye googled you for more than 2 seconds

    that cracked me up!
    great job!

    Very different, that's cool as we get tired of the usual, I would give my vote to this, it had me laughing a bit tongue in cheek, would liked to have heard a bit more on the hunter or huntress, think you could have played that along a bit more but it is still a good write

    This is cool a game show poem...Did anybody have to eat live bugs..sing songs in earscreaching out of key..These reality shows have made meadiocraty a shining star and we have all lost the plot(as your poem suggests) ..they are now feeding the public absolute rubbish and the gullible are lapping it up ..payin out millions in telephone charges and fees..O well was it said theres a sucker born every minute..Maybe many have been concievd during a "Reality Show"
