Dear Vocal,
If you are going to have a contest in which you promise to "suspend your normal 100 word count minimum" for works submitter to the poets community, you need to remember to reconfigure your web page word count checker so that it does not flag the story and prevent submission. Even though a word count minimum for works of poetry is one of the most bizarre, non-sensical, and downright dumb ideas I have ever encountered, you do have such an idiot rule in place and a word count checker to enforce said dumbass rule. You need to disable the word count checker for works submitted to the Mountain high ku contest. By the way clever word play. High-ku, hah! Hilarious. No one has ever thought of that before in the history of writing I bet.
Thank You.

The Devil's Triangle
The sails ruffled in the breeze as we cruised along. The Sea Breeze was a mid-size catamaran that sailed out of Royal Naval Dockyard in Bermuda. We had booked this trip weeks in advance and were now looking at our Captain, Spike and two boat hands. Paddy and Wilson seemed like nice guys, joking around with the passengers and telling us some stories about Bermuda that only locals would know. Their island accents sounded almost British but they were pleasant to listen to.
