KIM VANDERPOORTEN, SASHA OPEIKO, LEANNA McMILLEN, PANAGIOTIS PAPADOPOULOS, AND DONKEY BEADS: WINNERS OF THE MOONLESS MONDAY SONG-WRITING COMPETITION (LYRICS)

Remember, there are no losers: only winners. And remember that the winning entries were dubbed so because of the felicitous way they were thought to combine. They were judged to combine with each other in a felicitous manner. (And so the number of winning entries was enlarged from 2 to 5.)

IN OTHER WORDS, the non-winning entries might in fact be better (than the winning ones), so to speak. Please keep this in mind, especially if you happen to be the author of a non-winning entry. You should certainly imagine its non-winning status to be a matter of circumstance and expediency– not merit.

The winning entries will be posted, put-together, in the next little bit.

Kim Vanderpoorten, Sasha Opeiko, Leanna McMillen, Panagiotis Papadopoulos, and ‘Donkey Beads’–your prizes will soon be on their way.
