Comment from Rachelle Allen

Excellent

I get the fast and strong/survives part, but the "converts what others don't" makes no sense to me. Must be I'm lacking a creative poet's heart and assessment of life or something.

Go ahead, Rachelle. Get it off your chest and tell me off. I will admit what the other poem looked like, but when a poem is not promoted it will not do well. You will see I didn't move anywhere and that was never the point. I used the rest of the previous poem so as not to confuse anyone. Let's be friends so you won't need to think up snarky things to say.

This isn't me "not being friends" with you or "getting anything off my chest." It was a genuine review. I didn't understand it. I'll tell you what: I'll take a hiatus from reviewing anything further of yours.

I apologize, Rachelle. After reading a couple more reviews, I realized that this poem held a door open for interpretation that it shouldn't. Sorry for my knee-jerk reaction.

I just converted some member dollars, but spent it already. Hope I survive on this site! In the meantime, I'll relax and let people like you demonstrate how easy it is to make a minimum of words into a meaningful message.

Powerful little poem and illustration that emphasize the phrase: survival of the fittest. I'm working on that as I write this, summoning strength to finish the year strong.

Sending you my best today as always and best wishes for your writing day.

I'm not sure what this is referring to. The picture looks like Indiana Jones has been taken into custody in the background. Maybe the lady with dark glasses is the survivor. I think you like making us wonder.

Or ... maybe I just make it seem that way to affect a positive image of my sagacious brain.
