We Care About You
Enjoy The Music!
Anticipated wait hours, a few
Hope you have nothing better to do
You need to be kind
Or we hit rewind
Then hours on hold longer by two

FPS: The Last Flame Challenge Winners
Welcome to our first Winners Announcement of the year and to the final challenge in the Fall Poetry Series. The Last Flame invited writers to sit with endings, using fire as a central image to consider what remains when something burns out: ash, warmth, memory, silence, or the faint promise of what comes next. The strongest pieces treated endings as gradual rather than sudden, allowing them to flicker, dim, and linger.

YES! The nerve of them! Especially if you DO get cut off and have to go back to the bottom of the waiting list. Not something I want to plan my day around. Good one, Cindy!
I once went two hours before being returned to the original person I phoned. Reminds of a Sparks song.
This was super relatable!
Brilliantly crafted & VERY relatable! Awesome work!
