Vocal won't let me play the fool and be cool

I write things that totally break every rule

Darn, that's some of my best stuff

All the fun stuff got totally shucked

My words are plucked, they totally have me schooled!

    Glad you still writing with your own flair! My take is that challenges are prompts to literally "challenge" writers to create their best. Rules...are a suggestion perhaps, not necessarily an absolute.

    I can sense the writer's frustration and disappointment in not being able to freely express their creativity.
