Hello eUK, after some banter between me and some members of the Dead Poets Society today the Wayne Foundation will launch a national poet competition.
We are offering a Grand Prize of 2500 GBP
2nd place 1000gbp
3rd place 500gbp
Being a bit of a song writer and poet myself, I though I would add my first very poem I wrote about 15 years ago now, and it so relevant today after the FA sold off the naming rights to the FA Cup(shameful).
So here is my first little poem, please enjoy
Football
Football Football the working's man game,
Or so it was before it achieved fame.
The players are rich the managers too,
Far more important than me or you.
But its the supporter who really cares,
Enough to pay the top for moldy old pies or models of the kop,
While men in gray suits blow smoke in your eyes,
As a fat man shouts out, who ate all the pies!
To enter the competition please mail me your poem, then all the poems will be placed on one article for all members for the UK to vote on!
I wont print anything in a very mean spirit, jokes and light heated banter is ok.
If you poem qualifies you will also get membership to the Dead Poets Society
Have to go now the bat signal is on.

There was once a chappy called Dapper,
Who liked nothing better than to natter,
He fell in with an Ant,
Who ran off with the Swag,
And ever since hated the matter.
i said send them to me your ruin the surprise here
whoops x_X
ffs apples
THERE ONCE WAS A KING WITH A FEELING,
THAT THE eUK NEEDED HEALING;
HE FLUSHED HIS CASH DOWN THE LOO,
THEN THE ADMINS ADDED TWO Q's;
THE POOR KING WAS LEFT QUITE REELING
I voted for the article , I wish success to the participants!
Don't worry guys, I'm on it, but what should I do it about?
(P.S. Big/Obscure words tend to impress people who don't know about poetry)
Oh, poetry...I read pottery LOL 😃
I'l write you some suburban gangsta rap!
lol
30 days and not been laid
my sex appeal is zero.
If tonight I should die
I'd not attract a female fly.
Sounds cool Mr. Affleck 🙂
Y'all ain't got nothin' on PLeASE!
I guess you do need poets in your society. They're probably all illiterate.
I'll only make sure to include light heated banter, I swear on it.
Sounds bananas. I have submitted my poem and have extraordinarily high hopes of victory.
more constituion
roleplayers get a hard-on
meaningless drivel
Or how about this? (kudos for those who recognise the original version without googling).
Erepublik in 2015
An old, mad, blind, despised, and dying game.
Gold-buyers, the dregs of their dull race, who flow
Through public scorn,—mud from a muddy spring;
Admins who neither see nor feel nor know,
But leechlike to their fainting cashcow cling
Till they drop, blind in blood, without a blow.
A people bored and exploited in th' untilled script;
A community, whom liberticide and prey
Makes as a two-edged sword to all who wield;
Golden and sanguine offers which tempt and slay;
Politics Joyless, Funless—a book sealed;
A dictatorship, Plato’s worst statute, unrepealed—
Are graves from which a glorious Phantom may
Burst, to illumine our tempestuous day.

There once was a boy called Bruce Wayne,
Whose parents' death caused so much pain,
He went out each night,
Seeking criminals to fight,
And oh, did I say, he's insane!
There once was a young man named dapper
whos mother turns out was a slapper
she got into bed
with so many men
and turns out they've all caught the clapper
