Okay so this is about my 8th or so contest and I wanted to get back something different. I found a pic that could be used so many ways (assuming your talent exist). So here's what I want.
Let the picture inspire you. The topic does not have to be unique, but your words should be. It can be any format, but please check your spelling (dictionaries are your friend).
Now for the rules....
1. Cursing is fine as long as it is tasteful.
2. I see no suicide in this pic and see no need for it in my contest.
3. No Erotica. I should not have to explain that.
4. Dirty Pretty is welcome but don't go to far with the punctuation.
5. No prewrites.
Breaking any of these rules is grounds for automatic DQ. No explaination or warning.
I want to know what feelings this picture gave you. Dig deep and make it count.
Enter as much as you like there is no limit and please comment other entries.
Just a side note: If you find this contest interesting and would like to see more like it you should come join my new group.

- Final notes: This contest was extremely hard to judge. So many of you are very talented. I love the amount of different perceptions you can get from one picture.
