Shall I invest in the Federal Reserve,
Place my trust in the powers that be?
Leave my myself open to all kinds of abuse,
Or learn how to use a crypto currency?
One time the dollar did so brightly shine,
Though long since has his golden value dimm'd;
And every fiat from its peg sometimes declines,
By chance, or an algorithm, trimm'd.
But thy user base shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of the work they post,
Nor if the connection lag shall bugs invade,
When in eternal lines of code thou grow'st.
So long is the blockchain, now not a dream;
So bright the future with so much Steem.

Congrats! You came in second place and will receive 5 SBD by the end of the week. (There were only two entries, but I thought both deserved a prize). Thanks for contributing and hope you follow me for future contests.

I sure will! More people will read the two poems now, and that in itself is a success.

I hope so! I have a decent amount of followers, but a relatively small platform, but I really want to get people involved that may have trouble getting their content seen. So creative people can benefit from a small reward and exposure on someone's blog that is highly respected. I'm nothing if not my reputation. (I think I have two flags from 1 troll) but I disagree with people and just do so in a way that people don't find confrontational.
Hopefully you continue to gain a following and I will definitely get you that SBD in your account this week.

Thank you for your support! I was thinking yesterday about a way of promoting some more poetry: how about looking at trending 30 day in the poetry tag, and linking/reviewing/including some of the poems that are below, say, $1, in a weekly post. Being read is the best reward.

Thank you! received 5SD. This has certainly given me confidence and optimism. I've even started to pull together a novel, MVP, chapter by chapter. Two posted so far.

:) I'm glad because you actually took the initiative to try. There are those that will see a contest and instead of entering whine and complain about how there is nobody who reads anything they write. I wanted to make sure I rewarded you for entering.
Happy to inspire you to continue. My inspiration was 9 cents from a comment and now I'm doing pretty well myself after having gained a bit of confidence (I still don't consider myself a "blogger"in the strictest sense of the term and think saying that steemit is a blogging platform turns some away).
Keep up your hard work!
