With emotions running deep
I bought the whole of the dip
Expectations high, bull run
Woke up, alas! Coin, valueless, dumped.
...
...
Prepare for re-entering, I got hope
Lesson learnt from past loss
With the little, I bought more
Bad luck, binance theft, all gone.
...
...
In hunger, in thirst I live
Sold my all to invest in this
Losses and no profit it brought to me
Never dreamt crypto will treat me like this.
...
...
And this is where I'll stay
Warning those along the way
With caution, master crypto trade
So that your capital won't fly away.
...
...
Even till date, I recovered not
Loss upon dump, fell for scam projects
Even in this bull run, they told me fund your wallet
Truth is, crypto has become my curse.

DC Music

Darren Claxton is a Songwriter, Musician and Producer of his own music, from Derbyshire UK. The music he writes is often heartfelt acoustic indie folk with a sprinkling of rock and country influences, with an occasional world music flavour as heard on his track ‘Dragonfly’ . But most of all, it's his passive emotive thoughts and feelings that are delivered through that soothing vocal, and intricate guitar playing of his.

Procedure to get a Vote with DC Music Token:

  • Send your DC Music tokens to Bitshares Username

Whalecoin

What can I say about @freedomexists , He is the reason I got here in the first place. Before whaleshares was a platform, It used to be a discord community for steemit and @freedomexists used to run a weekly curation show which lured a lot of us to that discord to present our steemit posts and get some up votes. I must say Freedom as a host was really warm and friendly. Its also safe to say he is one of the best hosts I've come across in discord. Whalecoin is @freedomexists whaletoken.

Procedure to get a Vote with Whalecoin:

  • Send your Whalecoin to Bitshares Username

Judge

A contest like this would require a poet to judge. It would be a disaster if I sat to judge all the poems.
That's why we have the ever so talented @kimi to save my ass.
Do consider following her guys.
I feel her poems are really undervalued.
