In the struggle for recognition, sometimes the dark side may lead you astray.

Much like the “cracker jack prize” At the bottom of the box As candy lore goes. That unique badge of honor For those who would dive deep To grasp the brass button. Beware this lure full of Deceit. Along the way you may yourself Delete.

I liked the little 'Cracker Jack plastic figurine". Poem takes me back. Thanks for these memories.
