So which ketchup poems do y'all think have the best shot at winning? Just went back and read them all again, and I'd say only 1/5 of the ~100 entries even have a chance.
Sent's really stands out. The flow, narrative, use of vocabulary & poetic devices, meta references...it's a definite banger and the front-runner in my eyes.
Chimera's is my runner-up. The second stanza is a bit weak, but the others are rock solid. "John Kerry's wife is an owner of Heinz / I would gladly let her put some on my fries" is memorable and always makes me crack a smile.
Puddsy & TheGreatIceDrake would be my honorable mentions.
