Thank you for the compliment, @verbal-d! Huge honor coming from you. In my opinion, you should've won. I'm pretty sure mine edged out the other entries by a hair, because all the entries were spectacularly written!

Oh you are most welcome. You deserve the shine, and yes the other entries were good as well. @papa-pepper picked the right winner don't worry about mine, I appreciate your words though, maybe my poem was a bit too lengthy for a song lol

The length might indeed be the difference. But, maybe @papa-pepper just decided to give others a chance, since you already have a proven track record of spitting golden lyrical verses :D

You are much too kind, @papa-pepper is a fair man, I stand by his decision, congrats again.

I try to be fair... and a little random.

Plus, what I'm looking for varies.

It was excellent and spontaneity can help!
