Oooh! A stinky slice of cheesy🧀 magnificence there, Jordan – although the rat population of the US 🇺🇸 may disagree. 😬

All the best 🧀🧀🧀

CHAMPION CHEESE (a villanelle on 🧀 )

This is a poem just only on cheese
yet if it’s accused of being cheesy
will acquit itself with consummate ease

For cerebral persons who sniff “oh please …”
claiming it makes their stomachs feel queasy
this is just only a poem on cheese

So stuff your learning and college degrees
this poem from Tokyo to Tblisi
acquits itself with popular ease

Now don’t be a nit-pick combing the fleas
stop your polemics all snotty and sneezy
just leave well alone this poem on cheese

Why should I offer some fixed guarantees?
cheese does its own thing, upright or sleazy
this poem scores easy with erudite ease

So let us be kind in times such as these
and learn from the likes of St Francis Assisi —
this only just as a poem on cheese
quits on itself with consumable ease.

Judging this competition proved to be extremely difficult, owing to the sheer cheesiness🧀 of all the entries. I'm sure that dear old G. K. Cheesterton🧀 is now smiling down from Heaven, saying, " Well done, fellers! My observation concerning the absence of cheese🧀 from the subjects of poets is no longer true." Finally, however, after careful consideration of the considerable merits of Rew's wit; PAR's anaconda; Wally's rattling anal sphincter🙃; PleasingDragon's slice of very pleasant cheese🧀 indeed; Grace's absolute avalanche of cheese🧀 – has so much cheese🧀 ever before appeared in 25 lines of writing; the unutterable pathos of Ahavati's poem, which had me aching to peel and pop a grape into her mouth; Jordan's rat🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀 invasion and Josh's villanelle, the construction of which is a form well-befitting an engineer, I decided that the Portuguese Cheese🧀 of PAR weighed the heaviest in my poetry scales. So well done, PAR. I hereby declare you to be the Champion of Cheese. 🧀🏆🧀
