Art is for the bourgeois, comics for the freak,Gaming for the journalist plotting with his clique."Losers!" said the rightoid, 'midst his online brawl,"Since I have a job, I am master of them all."So the painters painted and the indies made their gamesAnd a few made money (though the rest went down in flames)"But there's nothing I would like – these freaks've dropped the ball!"Said the rightoid, smugly, making nothing much at all.The hand that holds the pitcher rules the palm that holds the cup;Men who wish to win their battles are advised to first show up.Those who never take the field, never risk the fall,Do not get to whinge when their opponent takes it all.RT: https://poa.st/objects/35d503c1-862e-49f9-9092-9ad8ae9760aa

@wan @wgiwf One of my favorite Kipling poems. Second only to Tomlinson which is also extremely relevant.

@wan @wgiwf not usually a fan of couplets, and the meter is very loose, but this is cute.
