I'd love to be a poetry judge,

Know what I mean...wink wink nudge nudge!

Chosen for my poetical nous -

To indulge in wordy "pick and choose".

It seems that adding a uni degree

Would serve to see the likes of me

Complete a literary course or two

To hold forth on the likes of you,

And what you write and even how

You form your lines in lonely plough.

Be warned I may not have the time

To determine quality stuff in rhyme,

For anyone writing these days knows

That the thing that pleases us is prose,

Of any type and however obscure

Will be welcomed like amour's allure!

Parading for admiring eyes

To win each competition's prize.

I trust my words you'll not misjudge -

Know what I mean...wink wink nudge nudge!
