.....my muse is still in hiding! She "needs" a "long" vacation!...LOL
-
-
Sorry........
....borrow a muse!
-
-
Sure... I'll just dart down to Walmart and scrape mine off the ceiling from when the shrieking kids plastered her there!...
-
-
OMG!!
Bear falls over
-
-
You can't fall over I want to enter the Pow lol.
-

Hey, while you're at Wal-Mart, see if the sporting goods area has an extra muse for me somewhere on a shelf. Mine has been missing for months.
I'm convinced it's somewhere in Hawaii with islekine having a luau, but if so she's being very hush, hush about it.
Oh, well...in the meantime I’d take one from Wal-Mart. 
Good luck to ya, boomer.
I’m thinking we should all break every rule Bear invented...

YAY!! I'm really, really good at BREAKING rules!!!
-
Let's see how many times we CAN use the banned words....*
-
-
Well, we "are" the judges....lol....and don't judges "make" the rules?...
-
oh....Trista.....sorry, but cleaning guy beat me to Walmart...
.....
Islekine says vog in Hawaii - so if your muse WAS there, you probably wouldn't be able to see her....LOL....
-
-
Well dang...

And to make it all the worse, I'm sitting here sooooo happy to see Bear was giving us a full 2 WEEKS to enter, then you and Julietoo put something in within the first DAY???
Ya' all are killing me!
-
-
-
Make the rules, break the rules,
sometimes I even FAKE the rules,
I don't think I can take more rules...
I'm haunted by linguistic ghouls!
-

I'm afraid though I have to deduct from your score - you used the filler words 3 times in a 25 word space; plus you repeated the word "rules" 4 times!!! Other than that, this has a nice flow, great impact.....I'd score it about a 98.7
-
-
Y'all are gonna get it!!
-
-
Y'all are Brats!
-
-
-
Do ya think it's possible to write a poem using nothing BUT filler words...??? Hum...
-
-
I tried it....doesn't work...
China muses are BAD...very BAD..lol...
If your muse is here...is mine over there freezing it's okole off? lol....
Shoots, cuz, I wen go write my poem in pidgen...lol..... -
-
I hope you know this contest is for you too
-
-
Word up...
THIS is a great thing here, thanks for the contest -
-
I'm glad you're part of the Team Ryan.....I have been blessed beyond any expectations ~
God bless you,
...night,
Bear ~
