Thank You!!!
The Steem Ninja Story begins with a spark....
In a bright little corner
of the deep internet,
was born our dear hero,
to vanquish our threat.
A binary baby,
and mighty indeed.
He had 10 node for a mind,
and a whale for a steed.
He grew up fast,
and he grew up strong.
He practiced Steemjitsu
the whole day long.
And amazed were the peasants,
their hopes growing high,
To issue a new era,
this Steem Ninja guy...
But up in the Palace,
so high up above,
the great Mark Almighty
was feeling no love.
For "who was Steem Ninja?
So puny and small!"
"No match for the Master
of Facebook and all!"
And so Mark lept,
and flew down to earth,
to mock Steem's power
and his blockchain birth.
"No match for me,
I'm here to stay."
"I'm backed by the FED
and the CIA!"
"You're just a small crypto,
so silly and niche,
My fortune is DIAMONDS,
I'll cook you like quiche!"
But firm stood the ninja,
ignoring the taunt.
And began forming fractals,
like a Turkish savant.
The Zucker got pissed
for being ignored,
and lunged like a rhino
toward a fiery board.
"Too slow." Mused the ninja,
while stepping aside.
And mounted his whale
to go for a ride.
"Away, ...to give alms,"
said Steem Ninja to Mark.
But FUMED still the Tyrant.
Nor extinguished his spark.
"You have turned them against me,"
Mark said with a spat.
Replied the Steem Ninja,
"Your lust for power did that!"
The Zucker then lunged,
with one devilish cry.
And Steem Ninja kicked him,
right in the eye.
Dazed, and confused,
Mark Almighty was down.
"Weren't you the Chosen One?"
Steem said with a frown.
Like a wounded beast,
Mark still was a threat.
No greater a danger
had Steem Ninja met.
The peasants then rose,
and shouted so loud,
"Finish him! Steem Ninja!"
And lowly he bowed.
He bowed so reverent,
they just didn't know,
"Was Steem Ninja quitting?"
His face didn't show.
Then up with a flash,
the Steem Ninja rose;
A blaze burning faster
than a KiloCore goes.
And blasted right through
that dark hideous man,
To prove to all Steemians:
"You can, Yes, you can!!!"
(Original composition by @em3 07/17/2017)
