We want a "True Grit" interpretation of the vintage cover. The picture may be fairly innocent. Make it not so innocent with interesting image and/or metaphors.
Rhyme is acceptable if creative and handled correctly.
Left align
Plain backgrounds only
No pre-writes
No particular limit but we don't want to yawn or have to take a bathroom break while reading.
This is a collaboration contest with ariosto

made it to san jose california and have a glitch with the cats. they are going to have to stay here at my in laws till march due to they have the vaccines required but they have to wait 90 more days before entering hawaii
i cried the whole day yesturday
and yeah.. i was wondering where your poem went cuz it was gonna get a silver or somefin!!!!! you dork.
dont have much internet access here since using inlaws stuff... i dont want to be a burden type of thing ya know?
we did get stranded in MN in the snow blizzard the 23rd and got stuck in dallas airport too with the two cats.
they were great though and actually piddled on a piddle pad!!!!!! they kept eating and drank too... so they were not too stressed out and i didnt drug them.
i am just devestated to be apart from them though till march
hugs!!!!
