Why Must You Always Be in My Way?

Always in the way

Dear Vocal,

If you are going to have a contest in which you promise to "suspend your normal 100 word count minimum" for works submitter to the poets community, you need to remember to reconfigure your web page word count checker so that it does not flag the story and prevent submission. Even though a word count minimum for works of poetry is one of the most bizarre, non-sensical, and downright dumb ideas I have ever encountered, you do have such an idiot rule in place and a word count checker to enforce said dumbass rule. You need to disable the word count checker for works submitted to the Mountain high ku contest. By the way clever word play. High-ku, hah! Hilarious. No one has ever thought of that before in the history of writing I bet.

Thank You.
