yes this is a true cut-up poem, some beautiful words and images here; some people preferred to arrange the words into something more coherent, but you chose to keep the rawness, and it certainly works! congrats on your win in my contest :)

Donna Jones
Date: 3/27/2014 11:29:00 PM

Hey Charlotte..yes I kept the words as I drew them randomly....including the title....it was a fun contest..thanks...I really had fun seeing how my chosen words fell....

hey, this seemed strange to me and then I realized it was for the cut up contest. The fact that it is strange sounding but it still has good imagery proves to me that you took this one seriously and did not cheat. well, we can't know that for sure, but I've seen others here at soup that I just know were cheating. they put the words together much too easily. That simply is not going to be possible if one is doing the challenge correctly. Good luck in the contest. this deserves to win.

Hi Andrea....well its hard to choose words to cut randomly that sound interesting alone then place them somewhere...but I really had fun...place or not..thanks for your kind comment..
