*lmao* This is great! Personally, I don't like the 10 word challenges... 35 words is hardly enough for a first verse. Here, however, you've cleverly divided the story into three parts. Part one essentially describes a sugar daddy. Part two, in parenthesis, shows sugar-daddy's shortcomings. Part three, the last line explains how he paid for his lack of packaging skills! 10 words with a beginning, middle and end! I'd say "Brilliant!" -- too bad the judge didn't concur!
