Finally Famous

Finally Famous After all the years After all the beers After all the tears I finally am famous Two of my poems Have been chosen to be published The Poetry Selection Committee determined My writing was not rubbish They were checked for grammatical goof Then I cheerfully approved “The Artist's Proof” Maybe I should publish a book Poems about Death, Depression The Afterlife How the Priest told me to find a wife I should write how poetry helped me Battle Mental Strife Now all I have to do is mail the check I wonder if I will become as famous as Shrek Yes...I am famous...In my own mind My Internet Publisher has been more than kind Their poetic approval has fed my ego My Poems, My Friends, My Amigos Joseph Adam Elward
