Honorable Mention Titleless Jessica My child, hear me: It is late now for make-believe; Deluges are driven by harsh winds against us, and it is bitter cold. We are as desperate men floundering and frozen among stinging drifts of snow, And there is no warmth in self-deception. ...The days when the wind blew soft are gone, ...and clouds are low'ring grey. Come, Beloved and let us pretend; Not as innocent children, unaware and unafraid, -Rather as a desperate man lost upon the sea, deceiving himself with visions of succor and hope: ...The sun still blushes in rosy dawn, ...and laughs throughout the day.
