A Shot in the Dark

Poetry competitions are like testing your own conditions,
Are you good enough at the art when you take a shot in the dark?
It depends on the objective but it can also be subjective,
When your words resonate with the reader it may just hit the mark.
It’s like a sudden and swift race caught up in the thrill of the chase,
I’m trying to show I’m the best from the rest in this virtual joint,
Testing to see if the host will like my post but most likely not,
Unless I ass kiss with this bliss of a poem just to prove a point…
Wait,
Unless I kiss his ass then have a blast when we both smoke a joint…
Wait, wait,    
Unless his ass laughs out loud so crassly after he grasps my point…
No wait,
Unless we smoke grass and laugh our asses crassly for trophy points.
Much better.
