Ratting on the ratings

They've been at
my stats!

it's taken them weeks,
the stupid geeks

I've gone from nine or ten
back then

to average four
or not much more

they haven't finished... so it seems...
do I feel diminished? In your dreams!

like a melting, sad poetic snowman?
the answer's a belting, glad, oh no, man!

doing all those hits
must be boring, silly shits

but although it's boring
they've sent my 'total hits' soaring -

raised to the skies my poetic cred -
you'd think, by thousands I've now been read!

sticks and hackers
may hurt my knackers

but at least these nerds
can't mess with the words

yet
