Here is my entry @papa-pepper.
Where did this came from?
Mark was free and relived,
He thought he ruled the world of
social sites.
@ned was ready with his ninja
He set it on rocket and was ready with his tactics of all kinda.
Steem ninja came and showed
his tactics
The crowd was attracted as they
never saw anything such charismatic.
He broke his tooth and
Threw those in a dump,
Zuckerburg was surprised,
He whined, "Where did this come from?"
Nice attempt as well! Let's hope he'll avoid the Fatality.. LOL
Good work. I really like every post you belong to. I think you are a unique person and have many creative and unique ideas.
I also like the idea of bracelets and shirts steemit you make.
Sometimes I also want to have something unique about me and steemit. But it seems I have a lot to learn from you.
If you do not mind, will you look at my steemit account and give your upvote on my post?
Very happy to get to know you @ papa-pepper
Woouwww amazing your post.I am very glad to see your post, you are very amazing I really appreciate your struggle and hard work in steemit hope you always succeed and get the achievement as you want it, I am here in steemit really hope you can help me because I am here to work alone , Please help from you and of course I am very grateful to you ...
Nice contest, thanks for sharing
Dear Zuckerburg
Facebook! After Steem I shall not give you a last look.
There once was mighty man, who came up with a plan.
He came from the crypto space just to punch you in the face.
It is clear for all to see, that it is time to bend the knee.
No time for you to cower, you shall feel his power.
Now you are crying in pain, after being hit by the block-chain.
Feel the mighty power of steem, after all we are the winning team.
Good luck to all the participants.
Like,like,like.....sorry sorry upvote ,upvote, upvote...
The beauty of winning is contained here. So, powerful!
Hi Guys
I am new on steem, but I thought I should at least try and enter this as well, gives me some pratice...
Thank you @papa-pepper for your wonderful wildlife articles.
Who was playing in the park.
He was a rude and selfish boy
he grabbed another person's toy
You made a mistake. It's steem ninja
Better run. You're gonna get injure.
When you think it is safe to breathe
He will be there to bash in your teeth.
Mark Zukerberg your time has come,steem ninja is gonna make you run.
But you can't run! and you can't hide!, "POKE" steem ninja and it's your suicide.
In the social verse, the STEEM is king, one battle facebook can never win.
That aint no smoke, you silly bloke, its called STEEM, now feel its power!!
"LIKE" or "DISLIKE" does not matter, your time is near we can smell your fear.
This was fun while it lasted, but danger!, steem ninja just got blasted!!
FINISH HIM is what they said and now both Mark Zukerberg and Facebook is dead!
Hey, worth a shot. Some great entries already, hope to be in contention. Thanks for this opportunity to compete.
Smash that book of face,
Aces up our sleeve.
Steem is picking up its pace
The rockets about to leave.
Cannon fodder,
your ad laced code,
Your newsfeed just a shoddy load of
buzzfeed buzzwords
and diply dives.
Won't matter
Farther down the road,
With communities organically grown of
Mutual respect
and interesting lives.
Inform your clever acquaintances
a retaliation has arrived
Long after your face has booked it
The blockchain will survive.
Oops! Think I was wrong, the name was Tom. Tom-To-Tom-Tom.
Joining him as an antiquity is the Zuck, he has run out of his luck.
Look at his Face: boom! Can't you hear the canon of doom?
The Social Network? Our man is going to break it, smash it, Steemit!
Wrapped around his head, da secret weapon: flag war will happen!
To a destiny of failure he is bound, it's Mark's last Power Down.
Nice, sounds like rapping! Can you sing it? :)
Not even in the shower... in my head is the most outloud it can get! ;-)
LOL!
Hahah.. nice man! I manged to sing though :)
My entry! :D
Hey Mark, My dear old Friend,
How it's going on your end?
We are good friends for a while,
But I doubt we will reconcile.
You said your platform is free
Aren't you selling our data for a fee?
You said that users are the boss,
Have they really read your TOS?
Don't you know you make us sad,
When you fill our feed with sponsored ads.
And why do have third-party apps,
That use our profile, may I ask?
While fatality is what you deserve,
I'm offering forgiveness to preserve
Your humanitarian works and charity.
It's a merit enough to set you free.
I hope someday you'll realize
It's not really cool to monetize
on users data and privacy.
It undermines the community!
WOW! Very cool entry!
I'll break your teeth,
Your eyes will go weak,
Now you don't touch my feet,
I'll take no treat,
To cool down that heat,
Can you catch up with the beat,
Or you accept my feat,
Come on let's meet,
Hey it's beet beet beet(@beetroot).
I know you are a famous guy,
But that time is passing by,
People call me ninja bhai(brother),
I'll punch that face! right in the sky,
Where no one will ever stop by.
Steem ninja is the new sensation,
Zuckerberg is now in a fake profession,
He will now go in depression,
As people will have long steem session.
This is my entry to this contest, I have never taken part in before in any of your contests @papa-pepper, but I have always desired to take part whenever I saw your contests. I don't know if I am eligible or not but I have given my best😉
Though I don't have a good voice but the rap rhythm goes well with the poem lyrics 😀
Nice to see an Indian on steemit :D Kill it bro !! ;)
Thank you
so, good luck with this one @alokkoshal
Thank you :)
Greetings sir knight.......
I mean @papa-pepper,
Did we have to participate in the previous rounds in order to join this round?????❓
Thanks❗❗
✌
I don't think so. but i am not sure. I posted my poem straight away. You should also do it :P
You were right, Thanks for helping out!
No participation in the previous rounds required. ☺️ Post away.
Thanks @essentialoilmom and @himshweta
Thanks for covering for me. I get lost in my comments sometimes...
Congratulations @papa-pepper!
Your post was mentioned in my hit parade in the following category:
Congratzzz...@beetroot
Thanks bro :-)
my pleasure bro..
I like that the meme went with my original Street Fighter theme and morphed it into a Mortal Kombat fight.
As an added bonus for this contest, I plan to take the winning song from this poem contest and turn it in to an actual music video.
Very cool!
That is simply amazing!
Happy times @papa-pepper :)
Most of times, I get lost wondering in the labyrinth of @papa-pepper posts because it is so complex you need a tutor to guide you through. ☺😀. Goodluck to the competitors
LOL. You may not be alone my friend.
Through contests we learn a lot and get motivation.... your series of contests are amazing ..... Fantastic series @papa-pepper ...... Love the series....
I think I will participate this time.
Just commenting so I don't forget.
Good idea. Thanks!
commenting just to remind you :P
hit you in the eye
and then you go blind.
I take to the sky,
I am @dwells .
Your teeth are shook,
this is no lie.
Even though I can't spells,
Bace Fook.
Very nice @streetstyle!
thanks @papa-pepper It was a quick one so I know it could have been better, so lets see what the others can come up with.
I didnt even motice someone had comolteted that last edit photo. Came out dope. Hilarious.
I must start warming up to participate in this series.
Hope Facebook breaks!
Let's see if that will happen over the next year. I guess we should focus on our game and just see what happens (and enjoy the whole experience)
Woowwww amazing your post I also like the idea of bracelets and shirts steemit you make.
i like u, you follow me@rameshkumar

amazing work
Hail Steem Ninja you win
Look at Zuckerberg he's out of the game
I hope his money is enough
To continue living his life
Or maybe he will join steemit
And be one of us, Steemians.
I hope he can smile still
After he got knocked out
But dont cry Zuckerberg
Be a good sport,
Congratulate Steemit
Give us an upvote!
Hail to the new King
Steemit win!
I wrote a poem!
About the flight into space on Stееm
I wanted to become an astronaut for a long time
To fly into space on a rocket
But those times passed
I'm with both feet on the ground
And for a long time I forgot my childhood dream.
But some adult man
Without a rocket my dream was realized
And took off to the moon.
And now I am saving dollars for Steеm.
I accumulate - and also tearing at the moon.
No skill at all in the poetry field (especially the rhyming part) but what the hell I'll give it a go lol...Thanks for putting these kind of competitions on for the benefit of all @papa-pepper we appreciate your time and effort. Also I couldn't find the original meme from @skycamper (deadlink?) so based mine on the most recent one just for fun, don't mind if it's not eligible!
As Steem ninja shoots into the sky like a star
Zuckerburg stays grounded like a stone
As Steemit rewards us with 21st century Steem Power
Facebook charges you to advertise in antiquated coin
As Steem ninja explodes into the stratosphere
Zuckerburg fades to black
Master Steem ninja says…let the minnow’s school, let the dolphin’s dive and let the whale’s breach
Steem on Steemitizans and change our world one post at a time…
Good luck everyone!
That was a typo on my part. I use a basic template for these and did not update that part. Thanks for the entry.
No worries, I thought it was my navigation skills lol
wow nice photo @papa-pepper
I am interested to see your photo
May I resteem your photo @papa-pepper

Papa had hands of stone
Everywhere he stepped was his zoneAnd when he flies,
All of the bad guys run home..yaa pappa ( sounds like trumpets )
Can you tell me if it's true
They modeled robots after you?
To win the final fight....
Go Papa
( final drum roll)
finish him.... Gangnam Style
Sorry I flub that push the wrong button
Rising from the seven hells
Steem shall deal a mortal blow
To our longtime mortal foe
Reading gift economy screeds
Community succeeds
Greed bleeds
Fiercely conquering space
Humanity keeping pace
We leave not a trace
Of poverty any place
Hoisted on the shoulders of giants
Running millions of servers and clients
We embrace good science
And so, in a fit of mediocre twerking
Down goes mediocre social networking
Steemit is where the might one @dwells
Here comes the steem ninja blowing his top
Over that man with the curly haired mop
Coming with a death punch to a man named Zuck
That snaggle toothed mother better get down and Duck
Here comes the steem ninja he's on the prowl
That boy from The Yard's getting ready to howl
Mark Zuck Yo! He's yesterday's news
It's the steem ninja's time, you better get a clue
Steem Ninja Ya! Blowing his top
Coming down on facebook with a fierce judo chop
When would the results be declared ?
