Free verse poem
 
I wrote this for English class today, it's called "competition":

The winner chosen
a chronic longing remains
obsene contentment

Not really a free verse poem - that's a haiku I believe.
Either way, I like it. Is the chronic longing in the winner, or the losers? It works much better if the winner, despite having won, still feels a chronic longing. The dissatisfaction of competition/victory.

either way... nice work...

Only if you consider it obtuse to wonder at the spelling of Bukowski
