A wonderful entry for the contest. I thought it was wonderful and I can relate and understand the question. I ask myself that same question every day. Good luck with the contest. Well done.

I thank you so much for such a kind review my friend. It's always great to have friends with a sense of humor, especially political ones. Thanks again for the big smile tonight!

The poem, coupled with those images, was so funny. You did a good job of making your statement in just seventeen syllables. Thanks for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Jessi, as always thanks for such a kind review. Also for getting the bit of political humor. Nothing better than laughter, as it is truly the best medicine.
Thanks again my friend

I like your picture choice. It could have been one of these does not belong. I'm pretty sure you know where I'm going. But life sure does have a way of continuing on, case in point, the bike. And determination. In the horse case. The other two, I think alcohol was responsible for the high flying car. And idiots for the other. Fun poem. (Sorry if you're a Pelosi fan) all in good fun.

Hahaha! Not a Pelosi fan at all Gretchen. In fact why I added her sitting in the House by our flag and wondering how it happened. She just got caught about a month ago giving her husband inside information on the stock market but sure biden will pardon her. The rich get richer! I love your comments too about the drunks and idiots. You are awesome. Thanks for the fun and kind review and comments my friend.

You are welcome
Comment from Sandra Nelms-Ludwig
This is a good 5-7-5 poem. It has a clearly stated message. The font is large and easy to read. The visual is just okay. By adding a political figure into your visual the fun lightheartedness of your piece loses that mood or tone. Thie other 3 photos work well together. The Nancy photo is about voting and the consequences of voting. Heavy stuff that changes your poem. Good luck in the contest.

Thanks Sandra, as much as l understand where you are coming from, adding Nancy to the pictures was much of my intention to say, How'd it happen? The woman is being slapped on the wrist right now because of leaking inside info regarding stock tips to her husband, which he bought into everyone of them. People need to stop defending the rights of the people who are trying to rid you of your rights to be free. (I am saying that to you in a caring and compassionate way), but using a little humor to bring out awareness
I am a bit of a rebel but its because I care. However not in anyway trying to be disrespectful to your opinion. In fact I do appreciate your kind words and comments my friend. ......I just have to share that our Church services this morning were regarding that if you have a means to call out evil and you don't do so, then you are just as guilty as the evil doers.

Do you! However, I don't mix toxic politics with something that's intended to be just "pure, untainted by thoughts of evil fun". Write a serious piece or commentary on serious topics. Putting her there doesn't explain anything. It just makes you look middle school teasing petty. You will not teach by using ridiculing tactics. The one you may be trying to reach gets turned off before they get the message. However, do you.
-
Sandra, yes I do. And people have been using politics humor for years and most seem to appreciate it and have a sense of humor. But just because I find this humorous doesn't mean that I could ever not see another's opinion as I am more mature and honest for that. So yes I really do.

Good to hear.

Thanks so much Jan, as I really appreciate your sense of humor right now. I enjoy political humor if it also gets a little message across at the same time as a laugh. So I thank you so much my friend for your very kind review and comments
Comment from Janet Foor
LOL! And How'd this Happen is an excellent question. Truly a mystery and a head scratcher. I guess this is what happens when you're not paying attention.
Delightful 5/7/5 poem.
Well done
Blessings

Comment from Dawn Munro
Hahahaha! I loved the pictures, although your poem doesn't stand on its own if you're hoping the images are anything other than imagined.
Most enjoyable though, especially with Nancy summing up. Hahaha! Good luck in the contest.

Dawn, thanks so much for your very kind review and comments. I know that you are right and these are supposed to stand out on their own and can truly understand in a time where people didn't use art with them it was much needed. But then I think to myself if I am adding a picture, why would you waste these few words on the obvious and make the poem boring? Y'know? Lol! By the time I say that I have four pictures and describe them, I have nothing left for words. I am a little bit of a rebel in that way but as they say, I call them as I see them. I do appreciate your fun and kind comments tho my friend.

:))) Oh, I get it, I do -- me too! Rebel that is!
Comment from Carolyn Dooley
The cow looks as if it does not understand what is going on. The truck may have been put up there by some sort of lift. The bike looks old enough to have been put between two trees that grew together over the years. Pelosi was elected. Thank you for sharing. It is something to ponder.

Mysteries and the impossible blend in life...a car suspended is easier to think about than 50,60, or 70 years. Life is build on adventurous mysteries. Great haiku poetry. Michael
