The List

The List I was waiting by my mailbox To hear news from the Soup I know they like to keep me Somewhere, in the loop I couldn’t wait to see, ME ! Somewhere at the top Of The Hundred best read poems That reader's thought were Hot While I nestled in my chair Took my subtle writers pose With my thumb under my chin And my finger, side my nose I started to peruse The list presented clear While looking for My Name I found it wasn’t there Perhaps an over site Could sure explain, a lot They failed to read, the comments And all the praise, I got But then, it came to me Those guys are really smart My poems are so good Their’re simply off the charts By JTCurtis
