yep, that is a story for sure. It would be better told with a font that wasn`t so small. You have a huge ball of fire with words that can be barely read or visible for that matter.

    In order not to be DQed (again), I made the font as large as possible and still be on one line.
    Did I cheat??????

    can`t imagine being DQ`d because of font size. That`s an error on the committee.

    Yet I see several in the contest whose entries bled to a second line!

    I believe the committee looks at the punctuation. A one line story can be more than 6 words (as an example) One complete statement

    As I said, I've been DQed for less.

This is a very good poem unfortunately difficult to read because the font is so small. I find if you raise the font the picture will shrink and you can read it better. It is a nice beautiful palm and you and a long line indeed but that's okay nothing wrong with that. It's quite like what you've put there and the picture is symbolism it's really neat.
So I find no nothing wrong with your phone per se other than just a block the font somewhere and shrink your picture there are older people who won't. Be able to read it so thank you so much for your submission all the best!

    Thank you for your kindness.
    In my effort not to be disqualified, I had to shrink the font in order to get it in a single line. (smiley face here)

This was deep and philosophical. Great creative imagery and visuals. I like the subtle humor and a punch to it.

Best of luck in the competition, I think it should go very well. You definitely fit volumes in this one line.

A complex situation described here of fury and acceptance, a poignant write for the contest, I wish you luck with this one liner, that is a scary picture, love Dolly x

    Thank you.
    I expect to be DQed for some imaginary reason.
    Even if not, without a pet or grandchild it has slim prospects.
