Friday Poets, Round 9
It's Friday and the start of something good: #poetryweekend. Tomorrow is #haikusaturday and Sunday will bring on the return of the dead with #deadpoems.
But today is #fridaypoets where we glue our hands to the keyboard ... don't glue your fingers; just your palms, it's hard to type that way ... and chornicle lives we wish we were having or lives we wish others weren't ... in verse.
Hey ... it beats standing in line at some pretentious club, talking about work-out routines and taking group-selfies to show how much fun you are having and then face-tuning all the faces, except of that one girl you totally hate ... oh yeah, she doesn't deserve to look like a blurry kewpie doll. The world can see her and all her totally realistic hag-lines. That will teach her for following you and then unfollowing you, once your followed her on face-toon-a-gram.
Back to #fridaypoets. Here are the rules.
- Up vote this post and re-esteem it. I check:)
- Visit at least three other Friday poets and comment and up vote their COMMENT here. You can also upvote their post if you got the upvote power but it is not necessary.
- Drop your link below to a poem you wrote today … that’s Friday wherever you are, or were.
- Make one of your tags #fridaypoets and place @prydefoltz in the title
- I will upvote and comment, to the best of my ability, on everyone who takes part having followed the rules. I should be able to get to everyone within the week. So that will be two upvotes one for your comment and one for your post.
- The liquid payout from this post (SBD) will go to the winner and participants.
- I will take part in the contest by writing a poem but I will NOT share in the SBD payout.
- Have fun and maybe crack a smile.
Last week's post with the steem payout included made roughly 0.45 SBD. I say roughly because with the greatly fluctuating steem price, it is hard to figure. The following people should take a look in their wallets.
@corderosiete 0.15 SBD
@zeleiracordero 0.15 SBD
@marlyncabrera 0.10 SBD
@newyorkfever 0.05 SBD
You are all winners:):):)
Good luck and happy penning.
And remember face-tuning is like pretending the naked emperor has new clothes, we all have to agree to pretend or it is obvious we are pretending. And then we just look silly.
