Poem

I've come to see this social site
          As something more than just a rite
               A place where I can write and grow
     (While other poets come-and-go)

It's not perfection - nothing is
          Still, I enjoy these hers and his
               No place is better than its peeps
     So many here are friends for keeps

Contests are, for me, a means
          A grand device for crafting scenes
               What I might not spawn otherwise
     With just the limits of my guise

Each public site with limits, thus
          Reflects the best and worst of us
               It's not about what place we earn
     But rather how we grow and learn

Perhaps there's some are sorry it's
          Not jammed with poet laureates
               But that would lead to detriment
     Just rife with sad discouragement

So while it's hard, sometimes, to take
          That some don't hit the contest brake
               I SHAN'T be one that questions rules
     Thus made and placed to suffer fools

For when I joined this Poetry Soup
          I signed the laws of this fine group
               So, though I might not quite agree
     I'm bound and pleased to let it be.
