The syllable constraints make it difficult, but I guess that’s challenge.

LOL! I love it! I’m literally exhausted by all this trump/manafort/flynn – add a hundred more names crooked business. But, I absolutely loved your take on the words and how you used them. ❤

I have a hard time with such tight constraints. maybe because I am not comfortable with leaving meanings to chance..

i might be quite the opposite, i want to be as ambiguous as i can!! that complicates my writing as well as my personal relationships, sigh, we do write with astonishing contrasts yet something about your words always draws me in deeper. brevity is your strength too.
