I've been trying to capture my feelings about the media's relentless use of left vs. right, liberal vs. conservative, fascist, socialist and on and on, you nailed it. I hope to link this to my blog sometime today if time permits, hope you don't mind.Michael Morsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07451637745981389920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8014482.post-84317506407748633942010-07-22T06:54:05.227-07:002010-07-22T06:54:05.227-07:00Intense and utterly unique, Peter.

I have a hard time believing I'm the first to come up with that particular pun, but I haven't seen it before. <i>GOOD LUCK</i> to you with your very first entry!<br /><br />Aerin, I will have to see if I'll comment on them all or not. I find reading them fun, and if I'm going to do the work of reading it, I'm going to get credit for it by making my name seen in the comments trail, dammit!<br /><br />So are you entering something? I've been out of touch recently, online only through my blackberry or intermittent moments. If you do submit something, be sure to post it (or email it). Yours always SHOULD be in the 40s club even if they don't make it sometimes.<br /><br />Also, thanks for the "top-notch" comment. I wasn't really worried about what the judges look for... I mostly wrote this for myself and hoped it would resonate. We shall see.<br /><br />I am not worried about worms in November. I'd bet the full prize money that I won't win.PJDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05028687955957107957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8014482.post-87692361547269252612010-07-20T19:12:30.886-07:002010-07-20T19:12:30.886-07:00Pete, Pete, Pete. You're not going to comment...Pete, Pete, Pete. You're not going to comment on every finalist, are you?? Brown-noser. I just can't. I just cannot stomach some of them. I know, I'm a snobby bitch and I won't make 40s club this go round. Karma's also a bitch.<br /><br />Now, having said that - I didn't know if you'd read the initial post, and what Steve said he looks for in Flash Fiction - that sort of last line aha. When I started reading your poem (your poetry is, as ever, top-notch), I worried how you'd get that aha ending. And you did!! Nicely done, sir.<br /><br />If you win again, though, I might have to put worms in your bed in November.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8014482.post-69575051115033381042010-07-20T12:19:09.408-07:002010-07-20T12:19:09.408-07:00FascHISSt. SocialHISSt.
