Very punny! Clevely alliterative slogan--this charming bit of wit would make for an amusing blurb on a bumper sticker. Great play off the "foolish" F-words!

Hi Liz,
Hahaha! Punny it is because only a presumptuous fool would think anything is failsafe with no room for error?error is the one thing we can always count on :))
Happy Thursday, Liz

Your one line contest entry reads well, Senyai. I like the image and the color scheme--both set off your line well. The alliteration of 'f' works, too. You give readers great advice. Thanks for the notes.
Best wishes in the contest.
Respectfully, Jan

Hello, Senyai,
Excellent entry for the One Line Poem contest. You packed a lot in one line. It may be good to play it safe but sometimes it's better to take a chance. Well done.

Hi Gypsy,
Ahh, I?m with you on this one? only a presumptuous fool would assume there is no room for error. :))
Your insight is perfect, you are rightly cautious. Thank you, Gypsy as always for your input and generous thoughts. Much appreciated!
Happy Thursday, my friend.

Comment from Theodore McDowell
Very nice use of alliteration and play on the word "fool." Should be a good poem for the contest. It reflects a cautious personality who builds guardrails into her life to avoid the catastrophic accidents of life. Btw, blown away by your review of my short piece "Goodbye." Processing it emotionally before I respond!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, Tim?
No problem. "Goodbye" was stunningly written and stark. ..extremely gut wrenching. Scarring is the only word that feels right for it.
I am tickled you like this play on words about a presumptuous fool?s point of view? thinking his failsafe is foolproof?nothing ever is in this life. lol.
Hearing from you is always a delight, Tim. Thank you for your generous review!
Happy Thursday, my friend. Hope your day in Atlanta is as pretty as the one here in North Texas today?simply gorgeous, sunny with a ruffling breeze:))

Comment from Terry Broxson
Dang, that is pretty good for a one line poem. Good luck in the contest. Suggesting an improvement for such a short poem is very difficult and maybe foolhardy to suggest to you, but maybe take the "Not" out. It would still be interesting and fun. You are the poet, you get to decided. Good Job.

Comment from Charlene Pratt
Perfect! There is nothing I would add to this sentence. it's without a doubt very clear and concise and let's the reader know that the three F's can be an integral part of safety.
Congratulations on saying it all in one sentence!

Comment from Mark D. R.
Senyai,
Nice overall presentation for this contest. Do like your f-letter alliterations, especially your failsafe-foolhardy contrast. You chose a good illustration to pair with your few words.
Since you capitalized your first word, consider adding a period. Otherwise, make all lowercase.
Mark
P.S. while viewing in portrait mode, it appears as two lines. In landscape, it is one line of text. However, I think your one liner might view as two lines and break after the comma.

Hi Mark,
Oh no! Really? My line is that long? I tried to keep it short so this would not happen. I will look for an edit on the capital at the beginning and end with a period. I knew that but overlooked it in my creative fervor lol.
I really appreciate your help and insight. Thank you.
Happy Thursday :))

No it is not too long! It depends on what screen you look at. I no longer use my desktop with its huge screen!

Ahh, ok..thanks for the update on that. I will leave the length as is:))
Comment from lancellot
Very interesting. I wonder if any plan or failsafe can truly ever be foolproof. It seems those are usually famous last words. No matter how much we plan or how smart we think we are, a fool always finds the loose thread and pulls.

Hi Lance,
Oh I love that! " ?a fool always finds the loose thread and pulls." and there it unravels all over the floor. Lol.
Only a presumptuous fool would think there?s no room for error? my poem is that fool?s assumption.
Thank you so much for the awesome review.
Happy Thursday, my friend :))

Said no IT professional ever. LOL. I assume that is the joke. A nice entry to the contest, with very cool formatting. How did you get the double picture? Does the editor allow you to insert img src links? Thanks for the read!

Hi Harambe,
Thank you for your insight. Yes, only a presumptuous fool would ascribe to my sentence and remember the demon core experiment and the slip of the screwdriver ? the death of two young physicists that you told me about? Tragic!
Oh, yes, let me get you the instructions on precisely how to put a picture in the body of your poem. There is an icon at the top in the Advanced Editor. I?ll text you in your FanStory email. I had the same question and Diane ( Mrs KT) was kind enough to message me with those instructions.
Thanks for an outstanding review. Much appreciated.
Happy Thursday :))

Good one...word-play is clever and the picture is just perfect for your haiku - I wish you great luck in the contest. Haiku are my favorite - as they make us weed out our garden of words.
