I wrote to the end of mine last night, but still want to come up with better words for two of the lines.
By the way, the submission instructions still mention putting the quote in the title, from last year's "Resonate" contest.

What??? I read through them and still missed that? Ugh, my brain these days.

FoxxGlove, I feel ya. What is up with my eyeballs not seeing the obvious?

Edit: fixed the template error, at least I hope I got the one you referred to, Scintilla.

I live in Oregon. Anyone have any idea what time the deadline would be in this area?
I'm useless at these time zones things (just one of my many failings, along with being totally unable to ballpark weight and distance by just looking....!!!!)

You're two hours behind Raveneye, so 9:59 p.m.
I'm really bad at ballparking time. "How long did it take you?" Uh, ten minutes, half an hour?

Thanks for submitting poems, all! They have now been posted.

Raveneye dropped the ball last night. I forced myself to stay awake till midnight to post them, then when midnight rolled around, I was so tired that I walked off to bed forgetting to post them.
