When I got up this morning I noticed the bureau mirror was staring at me It was just old You could see the cracks And there's a little kerfuffle smack in its middle Ususally the wife tends to these matters [time] Eh! Either that thing or me, gotta go.

Howzit! Congrats on 5th place out of 45 entries. Melee Kalikimaka!! Sorry it took so long to judge. Long story short my laptop would not and still does not accept the poetrysoup login screen. I'm doing this all on my phone just to get it judged. Regardless you had the most compelling opening of all the poems. "The bureau was staring at me..."

I'm honored, Matt, my friend. I too dropped out in September due to a stroke and still in the hospital recovering. Posted blog to update belated soupers regarding my contest, as well. Aloha~William
