At first, I have to admit, I was put off by the picture but..Your Words speak the truth about those of us who write. We do write from the heart for sure.

I enjoyed this poem. I'eve heard before that writers "bleed for their art." Yes, sometimes in these contests, it's all laid out there, and some don't see or appreciate your sensitivity. Kind of like poking yourself in the eye. Good luck with the contest. And the image is right on target.

    Thank you for the fantastic review and gracious stars, Beverly. I've edited the picture a little more. It wasn't suppose to look like it was poking her in the eye. Lol. I'm glad you liked the piece. Thank you again.

A striking visual to illustrate ! - good poetic advice as to how we might express our emotions - good or bad - our words enable us to look very carefully

Yikes! That's an attention-getting graphic, so you have covered the "impact" part of the contest brief, and your words are "concise", so it seems you have the bases covered. Thanks for sparing us the image of "spilling your guts" which your words imply.

You have used your few words effectively to convey an expressive message about the power of words, the power of writing, to bare our souls. Writing can be very therapeutic.

This seven-word-or-less poem, Where Parchment Waits, has seven words and asks that the writers putr their all into their writing to reflect who they are.
