“What No Compete Clause?
“This Poem-A-Day road on which we’ve embarked has been touted as NOT a challenge and NOT a competition, and so we aren’t. But the sports which we’ve been without for this pandemic are nothing if not a compete situation. So we’ll write a “compete” poem. Competing to survive is always a good place to start.”
The girl scouts
try to sell cookies–
Samoas,
mint, shortbread.
They compete to see who can
sell the most cookies.
