I am Pathetically addicted to Pathetic

by Kalikala Smith

At first it was an intrigue,
a site that was kinda cool.
So I decided, why not sign up?
It just might even rule!
I wrote a ditty to appease the masses,
and low and behold, they must've had glasses.
(of something strange, that is...)
I was accepted, and as I shouted with glee,
I had no idea what was in store for me.
The site slowly transformed,
my daily habits.
Instead of checking email,
I checked my poem on rabbits,
to see if anyone (please!) had written a comment,
or posted a lovely vote beside it.
As time went on,
I'd log into the site,
and instantly my eyes,
would drift up to the right.
A comment, for me?
This couldn't be!
Someone actually read,
some of my poetry!
With a jump and a shout,
and a complete freaking,
of my roommate out,
I clicked to see,
what this wonderful comment,
could possibly be.
Well, it didn't matter what it said,
and it still doesn't now.
Someone could say,
that I smelled like a cow!
As long as that number,
goes up and not down,
I'll never sign off Pathetic,
with a frown!

LOL! Has a kind of "Twas the Night Before Christmas" rhyme and tempo to it. Yeah, not sure what I'd do on my lunch hours without PPS. Thanks for the reminder! :o)
