Please Dear Voter
by Kevin L. Kitchens for DPChallenge
(parody of "Operator" by Jim Croce)

Please dear voter, oh could you help me raise this score?
You see my number on the front page is underrated.
I took an awesome shot.
Of a splashing water drop.
But it appears that on this subject you all are jaded.

Isn't that the way they say it goes?
Man these votes are crap.
Please give me a number at least above five.
So I can feel that this hobby's for real and I'll know
My average is too low
Because of jealous trolls
I only wish my shots could just convince the rest
Not to give me the brown...
But that's not the way it feels.

Please dear voter, oh could you help me raise this score?
I can't believe the number someone just gave me.
Brings water to my eyes
Even though it happens every time.
I thought I took photo Ansel would envy.

Oh dear voter, why not forget about my shot.
I'll self-DQ to try and save my average.
Thank you for your time.
Your three was so much more than kind.
It was more than the last time.

Brownward Bound
by Kevin L. Kitchens for DPChallenge
(parody of "Homeward Bound" by Paul Simon)

I'm staring now at my workstation
Rollover is my destination
The challenge theme was just perfect
I had the ribbon once the shutter clicked
I processed per the site's clear rules
The other guys, well they will drool
Brownward bound.
I know I'm not
Brownward bound.
Brown, for the worst one taken.
Brown, for the blurred or shaken
Brown, where my heart is breakin'
For my so-called art.

Every one's an endless stream
of photos taken sharp and clean
The challenge results the same to me
Basic, Advanced, the studies free
An amazing shot that I do see
The voters though do not agree
Brownward bound.
It seems I am.
Brownward bound.
Brown, for the worst one taken.
Brown, for the blurred or shaken
Brown, where my heart is breakin'
For my so-called art.

This week I'll enter once again
I'll watch this thing and pretend
But all the voters reflect to me
My talent's mediocrity
The fives, the fours, the awful threes.
The few high votes that cruelly tease.
Brownward bound.
I know I am
Brownward bound.
Brown, for the worst one taken.
Brown, for the blurred or shaken
Brown, where my heart is breakin'
For my so-called art.
For my so-called art.

DON'T QUIT YOUR DAY JOB, but ... Keep this up. Creative. Funny. Enjoyed it immensely.
