Winners are announced. Wait, is
that eight syllables?
***
The poem's lovely.
Its own story is awkward.
It makes people laugh.
***
The author's human.
There's poor judging practices
that need to be fixed.
***
Vocal needs to hear
its creative consumers
to truly succeed.
***
Transparency should
be prioritized to build
trust in creators.

I learned from class that if you do not follow directions on the assignment, you risk getting a zero or points deducted. I get that 'sometimes, you got to break the rules', but not always. I admit I do find loopholes, but I make sure to follow the guidelines as much as possible. Every contestant should be judged fairly, regardless of popularity, and make sure the contestant follows the rules.
I wish someone could print this out, shred it and force-feed it down the judges throats!
They just can't help themselves, it seems.
Yes! Why even have any guidelines if they’re not going to follow them?
