I am enjoying reading the posts in this contest. Must
admit I had a had a question about the God expelled.
Thought you were talking about the way the Creator made
us, labor does expel the child when we give birth.
Your notes gave me a more phisophyical view.

Superb art work and words"High school. God expelled. Beautiful grandchild." I would say the baby is all worth the expulsion from school.

Great writing.

Okay I respect your point of view on this one. I think for me without the explanation at the bottom the God expelled part gets a big huh? From the reader. That is why I gave you a four. With something so short there should be no explanation needed.

Happy Writing.
Michelle

    Read the reviews from the other readers, and you will see why the explanation is necessary. So many did not understand, and appreciated it. I think you are a great poet, who does understand immediately. Thanks.

    I am sorry you took my review so personal. I do not read other reviews before I post mine. I try to give an honest opinion, and really that is all a review is. I mean no ill will. If you would like me to stop reviewing your work let me know. I can be nothing more than honest with my own thoughts and remarks. I did not intend to hurt your feelings or make you defensive.

    Michelle, I value your opinion, love your reviews. We all get to decide how we feel about the things we read. My short, terse reply was not meant to mean I took it any way except the spirit it was meant. Reading the other reviews would just give you an insight why I wrote the explanation.
    Have a great day.

The visual and written presentation make a strong comment on the condition of our current society. The impact of such few words is dramatic. Thanks for sharing. JS

This would be a beautiful Senryu. I understand the criteria for the contest, but the last two words would make a fantastic satori.

I couldn't agree with you more about what's happening since they expelled God from the schools--I was lucky, I went to a private school where we said the pledge and the Lord's prayer first thing each morning. Enjoyed the write.
