Queen
I’d like to know
once and for all
is karaoke
supposed to be
good or bad
or just fun?
It’s hard for me
to do anything
just for fun.
This doesn’t seem
like karaoke’s problem.
Next time
I’ll sing.

Wonderful! Your ending’s solid and I especially love “This doesn’t seem/ like karaoke’s problem.”–humorous and says a lot in a few words (like the entire poem).
Is the title “Queen” as in the band Queen? If so, it might help to make it a specific (and super recognizable) Queen song. Would it be too unoriginal to go with “Bohemian Rhapsody”? I hesitate going with some of the other songs like “We Will Rock You” or “Don’t Stop Me Now” because they may throw off the reader and might now set you up for the poem quite as well.

Wonderfully insightful. Stick to the promise of the last lines. I’m trying to, too.
As a regular karaoke singer, I say do it!!!!
