This 2-4-2, You just Did, Dude, has the proper formatting and captures the realization that in the midst of denial, the impossible happens.

Do not
Ever again
Say can't.
A writer worthy of the title writer, can do, as was just proven, anything he desires to do. I believe that it is called talent. I also believe, that all of the writers on this site have it, some in abundance, other growing in talent as they study, practice, take and apply the advice that is freely given, mostly in love., and there you have it. Good job.

It is often hard to write a proper poem with such short characters and syllables, but you have done a good job and even made me laugh whilst reading. Great poem and good luck with the contest!

In my opinion, well, you did and did it well, though short, also sweet - it definitely defines the situation well, and rhymes too - in full compliance with the prompt. Best of luck in the contest with this little gem...

I agree. Too short for me.
I can't compress my syllables few
To say what I really need to...
But, nice try, you met the number,
And, look like you need some slumber!

-Good image and
nice presentation.
-The syllable count
is good, and the rhyme
is effective, as well as
your message.
-I like the definite
nature of the first line.
-Syllables do complicate
things unless you enjoy
working with them!
-Good luck in the contest.
-I just looked at your
title again, and like the
irony, too.

You're right
it can turn out
so trite.
A clever valid title with an enhancing
photo-art selection.
Well crafted overall!
Best wishes in the contest!

Haha! I like this!
I really struggle to write such short poems. I really struggle to call them poems with syllables so few!
But, you managed. And it rhymes. And it made me laugh! Bravo ;)
Good luck in the contest. Best wishes, Debra :)

You have made excellent use of all your syllables in this clever piece that
accomplishes something that the words claim can't be done. These short
forms are very challenging--for me.
