Excellent. Impacting immediately.
You only really get a moment to feel a 1-9-1 poem, and this hit me.
Emotion in the 'why'; irony in the 'word'
How many people say that? Usally people who don't get listened to. I could feel the anger here.
I love how you hung the word 'word' in the last line; like it is the last word. Clever.
Good luck with this.

Your comments made my day. Thanks so much!...Glad you noticed the last word...
Comment from rama devi
Good one, with the last word being the last word--which gives a poetic and dramatic emphasis on the point. An excellent entry for the 1-9-1 contest. I thought this had to rhyme (in old prompts it did) but in this one it does not seem to require it, so good job. Good luck!
Warmly, rd

Your post is in good 1/9/1 syllable count as required by this contest
good alliterative pairing of why and word
good pairing of art and words
good use of enjambment to make this one continuous sentence

Thanks so very much...(.I guess the last word should be Thanks!)
Comment from ShadPep2
You followed the pattern exactly. The picture with your poem matches the words perfectly. When we try to get that last word in it does often end in an argument. Great job!
