    An excellent prompt! Mine is below. I ask, should I be selected for a prize, that you donate the money to the fellow who took the picture! https://shopping-feedback.today/poets/the-guardian-sqgr0ana%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv class="css-w4qknv-Replies">

    Okay. I'll be back.

  • I'll put this on the VSS Unofficial Challenges list, reminds me of the sculptures in Pannett Park Whitby that inspired one of my Mus's favourite poems and my first book of poems for her.
