Trophy

You encouraged me to participate,
You made such a din,
You promised that I would be successful,
And that I would surely win.
But it appears that you deceived me,
You really have no class,
Please give me the trophy,
So I can cram it up your ass.

Oooooo - just a bit cranky about a personal experience - where I was encouraged to do something "because you have a great chance of winning" when all along I was invited to participate simply "to make up the numbers" and make someone else meet some nebulous target.
