Hahahaaaaaaa. Ok, I'll admit... brilliant. Let alone the work that had to go in this great piece, you clearly did not use one single "A." We all know how it's going to end though. We can argue the fact until we're blue in the face, but they will use the powers that be, no matter what the rules state, to tear this down. I say you adhered to the rules but knowing how it works on here, I doubt I see it on the voting page. Fingers crossed they'd let it slide but how unlikely is that. Fantastic piece, author.

Thank you very much 🐉☠️ -- yup they just ripped it down and won the battle but lost the war:
>> Committee decision: Every word begins with "A" <<
Never give up, never surrender!

Comment from Gloria ....
I give this full marks if only for the rebellious cheek, which seriously comprises a great deal of the law. The instruction read no "A"s and you have indeed only written with a lot of baby "a"s. They are so cute.
Very well done and wishing you great luck with the voters. :)

Thank you so much Gloria! I worked hard on this one and your support means the world to me.
Comment from Julie Helms
They are going to DQ your banana butt right out of here, lol!
Very clever poem, and I learned a few words...arete and ausculate.
A fantastic image, too. You definitely do better with your AI art than I do.
Thanks for the laugh!

Hopefully not, as I did follow the rules as they were written! It said no capital 'a's. Yes those were great words and those two were new to me too. Thanks Julie : )

Here's some ammo for you....a few months ago there was a contest to write about a key, so I wrote about the key to life. CEC said in the DQ message to me, "it must be a literal key" which it did not say in the contest. So here, you have done literally what was asked, and no go. Very inconsistent judging....

????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Maybe, you misunderstood, or maybe the other who penned their words did, like I would have done, as I read it to be a piece written WITHOUT an A.

Thanks for not docking points. All my 'a's were in fact lowercase, therefore they abide by the contest rules.

Talk about sticking it to the man! Bravo poet and
I hope you do well with this. This must have been as hard as trying to write without an a

Thank you very much. It was probably considerably harder. Fortunately, if one is stuck with an alliteration, the letter 'a' is probably the best (and only) possible scenario for writing complete sentences! It is the only letter that allows for all eight parts of speech (most notably, articles).

You're most welcome
