Leaking Soup

OK
Someone leaked this poem
I thought I hid it well
I didn't post on the net
and there's no one I would tell

Perhaps it's North Korea
heard they're hacking everyone
or that group they call the Lizards
just out to have some fun

Now all the time I spent 
to write it, gone to waste
All millions have to do now
is simply cut and paste

I'm sure by now, around the world
everyone has downloaded
and my pop-u-lar-i-ty
on the web, exploded

But I still have some little gems
of which I'll never let them peek
unless of course, I find the source
of how my poems leak

Hi Jerry. Very clever poem for the times. The secrets that are inserted in code may still be safe. Enjoyed it my friend.... Robert.

The trouble is Robert, with Our government's New Anti decoder Ring Act putting pressure on Crackerjacks to cease and desist placing prizes in the bottom of their boxes of candy coated peanuts, Kim Jong hasn't been able to decipher it. Thanks for stopping by---I'm coming to see what you have been up to

That is what's happening in South East Asia nowadays, planes are hijacked and lost in the air. You 're lucky that the poem though leaked is safe, hahah. Jerry
