Ode to Noob

Inspired by a writer named DarkAngel666 and his contest: http://www.writerscafe.org/contests/3760/

There once was a noob
Who was angry with the world
And was full of hate

An avid writer,
He found a community
He could belong to

He pored out his heart
To his online companions
And enjoyed himself

He posted new works
As often as possible
Showing off his skill

He never thought to
Save hard copies of his work
To keep forever

He left the café
Awhile for reasons unknown
And left there his work

Many months later
He returned to us and saw
A note from the mods

There was a glitch
In the café's mainframe and
All writings were gone

He just stared, dumbstruck,
At his glowing monitor
Unable to speak

He became angry
That he lost his dear writing
That he'd slaved over

So he created
A contest so that he could
Again air his heart

And he posted his
Many grievances against
Our quiet café

Interrupting our
Peaceful society with
Much vulgarity

He rampaged and yelled
Showing off his ignorance
And stupidity

He asks us to join
In his crusade against
Our belovéd place

 

He's leaving our site
He explains, and asks us all
To join him and leave

As we read his rant
We quietly laugh and then
We say good riddance!
