Ok students, repeat after me. Todays Vocal topic... History is for the History community, Poetry is for the Poet's community...Journal is for...you get the drift.

Wading through the History challenge to find an authentic History story entry is no fun.

My mind grates, my teeth clench and I so wanna scream

What the Heck and Hell and Holy Moly is going on

I don't wanna use the really ugly words here

But they are so deserved

Especially if I go Jamaican on you cusses

Nobody in their right mind will read those

Advertisements you all are posting in the

Spots reserved for CHALLENGES

Was it Momma Combs who just made

A lovely rant about this mess

Can I please just read History stories in the history challenge

Goes for every other challenge as well

If you are gonna pay good money to enter a challenge

At least attempt a story that has a chance

Spam and crap just wastes my time

We really are drowning in the muck and murky waters

Gasping for air to breathe free again

I would like to swim unimpeded

Bring back the days of authenticity...

Thank you!!!
