The Poem that was Always Left Out

He wanted to be included

Yet somehow he knew he would be excluded

Couldn't get excited

As never invited

Felt somewhat slighted

Knew he wasn't the brightest

Just wanted the opportunity to be there

Thought it wasn't fair

He should have a share

Sat in the corner

Looking like a mourner

Had heard about some of the former

He was a bit of a loner

Upset not knowing the next step

Could come up with any text

But wasn't sure it would pass the test

Always tried to do his best

Had some doubt

Such is the life of the poem that was always left out
