Well, I wrote a poem about Justin, knowing full well it is lame and unoriginal. I emailed it to Justin for the ephemeral glory of hearing him read it on his show, but alas, I didn't make the cut.
Obviously, I didn't submit it for the prize, "as if" I could actually win one. I just wanted to see if I could write a coherent poem, regardless of its literary value. No such luck, apparently.
Help me fix my bad poetry by adding your own verses to the comments for this post.
Ode to Justin.tv
Started by Kim M. Bayne
Justin streams his daily life to all
In answer to the Web Glitterati call
A subtle reminder of the Truman Show
We live each minute blow by blow
Broadcasting his life in wireless mode
Streaming must be a lonely road
Flies on the browser wall are we
Yet, we see no earthshaking activity
'Til one night did someone call the fuzz
Bringing the wrath of landlords with Net voyeurs abuzz
Yet, as I watch the potpourri of his open source existence
My envy is heightened by my technical ignorance
How
Surely not to work at all, but merely to play
*** To be continued ***
