Have you been inside my head? Lol. Very humorous. Very well written. A great fun poem with good rhythm and rhyme, and I am sure that many will identify with this. Very best wishes for your entry!

After much debate, I hate to say that I relate and really must resist the bait and break this trait, before it becomes a habit. Nice work on this piece.

    Haha... our other addictions have to get in the queue behind FanStory.

    So true. And I should have known you were the mystery writer! So good.

You have indicated that FanStory has control of your life. I know what you mean.

My eyes are glued to this display.
I'm at this desk most every day.
With rhyme and meter, I must play.
My wife says she will run away
If I don't change without delay.
What can I do to make her stay?

    You are too keen!
    Turn off the screen
    and spend some time
    NOT making rhyme.
    If you really love your lass
    you must get up off your ass.

Such a delight trying to work out who has written this. I've narrowed it down to two or three but will have to wait until the winner is announced to find out. Great entertainment, artfully phrased, and altogether worth a phantom sixth star.

Well, I love your poem and I know exactly how you feel. I've never belonged to a group that I just can't seem to stay away from before FanStory. I feel as if I've been looking for this place for years. Great job putting it in a poem. Good luck in the contest.

You can almost see this writer at the keyboard writing poetry with a frenzy. Your format is indeed overloaded with rhymes and you prattle on, but you are no bore and I was entertained. Rod

    Thanks, Rod! The train of thought got up a head of steam and ran away on me.

Such a cute post! Great to read with a great rhyme scheme, but a 'story' that many of us know so well. I've gotten out of FS a couple of times, but keep coming back. Of course a large part of that is the people...

    Thanks for reviewing - it seems that a lot of members get bitten by the bug and keep coming back.

This is what I should have written about! I sit here all day doing one thing or the other...trying to earn dollars, trying to think what to write..I never worked this earnestly at a job! WAIT - this is a job!!

    You are right Sherry - FS is very compulsive, more like a job than mere recreation... and we work for peanuts!
