The Challenge

This will run from now until midnightish on January 31st

The challenge is to take an image from Bouke de Vries' site and use it as inspiration for a sad poem. The images are mostly damaged creations reformed into beautiful pictures.

The music is "Broken Arrow" by Robbie Robertson

I have written several which you can find here (one even got a top Story for some reason)

Bouke de Vries' site is here

The site starts in 2009 but goes up to 2024.

Share your poem in the comments, and include a link to this piece in it.

Noe: To get a tip you will need a Strype account

On February 1st I will award five random entries one dollar each via Strype, and include the stories at the end of this piece.

Thank you for reading and hope to see one or two poems in the comment section here
