It's April-I'm still kinda mad, though

You guys, I didn't talk about the NCAA tourney the entire time it was happening because my one bracket was a virtual lock for victory, and I didn't want to jinx it. Only one scenario could have sunk me, but it was so unlikely it barely registered as a threat. I'm sure you can guess what happened. WHY DO YOU HATE ME, NCAA GODS!? I present to you my 2009 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament poem:

"Et tu, UConn? Sorry I mean-et tu, UCannotdoanything right?" by Okay Seriously

Once again I'm at a loss for words.
UConn, you are a bunch of turds.
Victory was nearly in my grasp
Till you guys played like total ass.

How could you go and hurt me this way?
Are you trying to make me pay?
Just cuz I don't know what city you're in?
Or your names, stats or number of students within?

Well nail me to the cross, you bunch of fairies.
Feel like I got kicked in the twig 'n' berries.
If I had them, you know what I'm sayin'?
Don't think you do based on how you were playin'.

Same old song, different year it seems.
Screwed by The Man, raped by my teams.
Dammit, March Madness, you make me so ill.
Yet I love you so much, I always will.

Wait-I win for second place?
That brings a smile to my face.
Thirty percent of the pot is mine.
I'm going to the bar so, um, nevermind.

Yeah I totally won $70 for second place. For that reason, I thought it would be hard to write a poem and sound genuinely bitter. Guess what-it was not. Number 1. I must be number 1 next year and win it all. There is no other option-I mean besides writing exceptionally bad poetry.

P.S. Last year's poem is here.

despite my aversion to sports and sports related words, and events, that was still a catchy poem!

Hi Okay Seriously, Prairie Princess here. I've been a "closet reader" for awhile but thought it time I come out. Given our mutual love of New Kids I thought you would enjoy the short novel I wrote to recap the NKOTB concert I attended the other night. Check it out www.hillbillyhilarity.blogspot.com. You've lived it you know.
P.S. Anxiously awaiting your 2nd NKOTB concert recap.

Lucky you, Sarah! The Memphis Pansies and Duke Blue Balls killed my bracket!

I know this is way late but I'm behind in reading and I just had to say your poetry is cuter than puppies.

(But in a sudden ominous turn, my word verification is "inedrope".) As in, "I Need Rope". As in, to tie someone up and kill them, or to hang myself. Not sure which yet.

I'll let you know.

Or not...
