Here is the progression that this contest follows.

ROUND 5 = SONG – Use winning poem from Round 4 to make an original song.
SEASON 12 SO FAR
In Round 1, @photon12 won the photo contest with the help of @samstickkz!
It was his winning photo that provided the inspiration for the artwork in Round 2, which lead to this winning artwork from @pearly. This became the base for the MEME contest in Round 3.

THE ROUND 3 WINNER IS…

@yesaye FOR THE WIN!
I thought that this would make for a fun one, since the subject matter is something that we have all experienced or seen here on steemit. Have fun, keep it clean, and see what you can come up with.
NOW WHAT?
Now, it is your chance to write a poem based off of the winning meme from @yesaye. Use that amazing meme for inspiration and write your poem! There is no need to have participated in any of the previous rounds. Steemians can jump in on this one any time that they want! The "Official Rules" are below.
Here are the rules for Round 4:
- Create an original poem based on the winning meme from @yesaye.
- The poem must be at least 8 lines long.
- The poem must rhyme in some way.
- The poem will be used as lyrics for a song next round, so you may want to keep that in mind.
- Enter original work and provide your entry in a reply to this post.
- You can still make a post out of your entry, but your post does not count as an entry, only your reply.
- Keep everything kid-friendly and G rated.
- You must enter prior to the post payout from this post.
- By entering, you are giving me full permission to use your entry however I wish.
Until next time…
Don’t waste your time online, invest it with steemit.com

Omg @papa-pepper, this is my first ever win on any Steemit contest! What better way to kick it off than a win in one of your contests!?
And winning 50 freaking USD
Thank you so so much! So grateful right now. :DDD
PS: I jumped at least 5 times in joy.

POEM ENTRY:
It was so dark and stormy, my Kung-Fu pal seemed tired,
He came back home from work that night, on coffee and was wired,
I asked him "Dear oh Jackie, why you look so glum?",
He looked at me so desperately and answered "Life aint fun".
Curious, and I wondered, why was he so sad?
Could the life he led today, really be that bad?
He took out from his pocket, a picture of 3 Kings,
They seemed so quaint and happy, without their diamond rings,
"You see dear Bruce", old Jackie said, "There seems to be concern",
"When on this bloody Steemit blog, Noobs often do get burned",
"When asking for an upvote, from here and there and far",
"It shits me so damn much it does, I want to smash my car,"
'Tis true they say, when spamming spams, not much that we can do,
We want to flag, ignore their bursts, and even try to sue,
"Aha!", said Jackie, with smile so wide, his teeth shone bright and Grando,
"I'll just reply quite gleefully, and ask them When they Lambo?"

Here is mai entry!
Hai sir hav u seen mai post yet
I put it up, got it off of the internet
I call it mine cos i stole it from a flickr set
@Cheetah call it plagiarism, I call it a safe bet
Enough of you will hit upvote
before you vet it
I spam this platform so hard
like instagram or reddit
You should see my dupers delight
when i dont give credit
I play all you steemians like fools,
yeah I said it
I got an army of robot trolls
to aid and abet it
Hai sir hav u seen this thing we call a flag?
We apply it when you treat Steemit like a rag
You will see your reputation lag
Your ill gotten gains will start to sag
Clean up that spam, put it in a bag
Post original content, then you can brag!

"The stars reveal this threadbare night,
the apogee of you from your car,
but it doesn’t feel quite right to make your return,
so you continue astray,
leaving your ears as guide.
The crickets chirp & you can almost decipher their monosyllabic words,
let go of any pretending to be at one with, to understand nature,
do as you’d done as a child: let the voices
around you spread beyond what is unknown,
the valley walls so far off nothing but bounces back "

Everywhere you look you see them spammers
They are fake and act like their word matters
They hardly read a post but want upvote on platters
They are everywhere even after you give them banters
They post 'hey have you seen my post yet?'
Everywhere you will see them i can bet
Not a single upvote from me will they get
I wish could pull their ears in real life if we met
On your post they promote their content
They choke your timeline with their comment
You scroll through as you try to have your moment
You wish you can chase them away like a rodent
'Have you seen my post yet' they lament
I wish to reset their brain with my helmet
They don't realize they are with a customized ailment
Maybe being flagged will make the statement
I see them everywhere and i call them lazy
Well you might think what i say is crazy
Silence is golden when you don't have an answer
Why force it when you can't dance a salsa
Read a post through then give your thought
With your spamming comment i can't be bought
I have seen @swissclive flag people to minus and zero
For spammers they definitely can't be on her payroll

How fun is this! Here's my Entry:
Spammers always be like "Yo,
Lookin' good ya know,
I smile like Jackie Chan
and know true happiness man!
May I be your friend, my friend?
and show you the Post I send?
Feel free to upvote me
and 'Show Me The Money'!"
I just look and shake my head,
knowing the line I've just been fed
is nothing more than a selfish tag
that makes my fingers wanna flag.
Trying to be nice I say,
"Take your Post and go away.
You can earn much more respect
from my advice you might reflect."

Good day @papa-pepper I haven't got the chance to join the previous rounds for I seems to have trouble doing so (dont have the talent plus I dont know how). Here I have poem to contribute your round this time. Hope it would be fine.
Spammers come and go
Waiting for great blog to jump into
Exposing itself like crazy do
Begging more than a beggar do
Disturbing you and brings headaches too
Hai sir have you seen my post yet
That's what we usually get
I'll up vote this, upvote mine too
Follow me and I'll follow you too
Thanks for this, more power to you and God bless.

Of spamming world with deja vu

Or stay here at your own risk
He's coming and he will ban

Friend….
You are a gift to me
You explain in my dark times
All my problems are light because of you
Friend…
I am very impressed with you
You make me sad
Be my laughter
Makes me hard
Be happy me
Thank you my friend
I can not forget about it
The services of your struggle
All stories about us
I'll do the best
Like a friendship strap
What we have together
I will not forget
Yourself though
We are inseparable
With transverse distance

Hi @papa-pepper, this is my entry
You bore me with spammers.
when you visit my post
I just ignore you
raisins leaving trash
and sometimes I react
someday you'll find out
how improper your walking is.
In the meantime no one will ever love you.
Me aburres spammers
cuando visitas mis post
yo sólo te ignoro
pasas dejando basura
y a veces reacciono
algún día cuenta te darás
de lo impropio que es tu andar
mientras tanto nadie te ha de querer

This is my entry for competition @papa-pepper.
I want to tell you all spammers
You're a group of freaking scammers
Don't you know that I have the power of flag
The ultimate weapon to make you flat
You got to understand that you ain't going anywhere
This behavior is going to bump your head somewhere
It is always better to be the original you
Sooner or later you're going to get your due.

My Entry and Post link for Round 4 poem.
I get these comments everyday
the same thing every time
'Good work on your post my friend
I like yours please like mine!'
They're not just on a post or two
They're on like every one!
They litter up my reply feed
with copy and paste runs!
I want to know I'm being seen
I like to share my work
but make your comments relevant
you spamming super jerk!
I'm not going to follow you
I won't even see your page
your best works underneath my post
inciting Steemit rage!
Go away! You don't belong!
This place is not for you!
Your comments are worth less
than some dog poo on my shoe!
Find another get rich scheme
this one won't earn loot
all you'll ever get from me
are flags and then the boot!

hello @papa-pepper, I @poenbit not a poet but I really want to participate because I really appreciate you who have made this contest. I often read your post which I think is very useful. Thank you for the chance.
It's my poetry with the title "Spam Works"
Spam....
Small chatter to be cherished.
Become a Joke that invites expressions.
Spam...
Steal a chance to be pitied.
Sloppy work that does not mean, let alone achievement.
Learn...
do...
so that your work will be admired.
