This competition
corrodes camaraderie
Vicious victory
from verbal vilification
Hopeful honesty
hides from hurtful humour
Bonding betrayed
by bloodied besting
Stop senseless slaughter!
Souls strive so sadly
Unity ultimately
undoes unfair undermining
Hands holding,
highlighting hopeful hearts.

Positively pontifical and politely to the point!
Great job with your lines!
Love it!
Peace to you, Helen.
Cheerz! UT
Thank you so much, and thanks for visiting. Just went to your blog and I LOVE it!!!
“Hopeful honesty
hides from hurtful humour”
You’ve hit the nail on the head with that one. Very good.
Thanks so much!!
Love the last tiny paragraph.
Thanks Estella!!
Had to read it again to confirm but yes, it is a complete and grammatically correct sentence and that alone has me in awe. I thought I was bad when it came to overuse of this much maligned style but yours is fully sick! I bow to your supremacy and will never again chide myself for flogging this particular horse to death with a pen. Very well done (and pretty hard work too I’d guess).
Thank you so much – it was a bit tricky to do but quite fun too.
Oh, oh my.
Thank you so much!!
