FIRST PLACE WINNER 2014
Art by Nancy Rogers
"Art Speaks" story by Barbara Gassner
Ready to Rupture She felt her frustration building... What more could she do To let the gods know they were wrong? Wrong to send floods Wind, rain Fire, quakes Tsunamis, drought Sorrow ... Death. She was but one ... A single solitary soul Aching for the world to be a better place. Helpless But not hopeless -- Overwhelmed But not powerless -- She threw back her head And stuck out her tongue In contempt of the mayhem ... Mending the world would begin today.
