Poetry Slam Master @prufarchy headed off to Amsterdam with the promise of an exciting Steemfest edition poetry comp.

Signing off, "So STAY TUNED for the next Poetry Slam Challenge: STEEMFEST Edition later today!"

That was 12 days ago!

Yes I am in SLAM withdrawal, but actually I really just want to see him pop up and tell us he was just having a bit too much of a good time, and is fine.

Just yesterday I thought about doing a shout out, and then today I spotted Operation Steem Poke

@d3nv3r/operation-steempoke-let-s-poke-a-poet-sp-reward-and-poetry-challenge

I hope we hear from you soon @prufarchy! Operation SteemPoke @d3nv3r is running a poetry comp in the hopes of luring him back.

I hope it works.

Come Back Slam Master

@prufachy master of the Slam,
Like many went to Amsterdam.
I was wondering if you are okay,
And if you'll post again some day.
It was you who sparked my love of verse,
It's my hope we will again converse.
It seems I'm not the only one,
Who hopes you're just out having fun.
It feels like it's been many moons,
It's my wish that you will be back soon.
Even just to say G'day,
And let us know you are Okay.
Missing you and your words,
And wishing you safe returns.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
