It's a lot of fun to go back through these. Everyone contributed so well this month. Here were the ones that stood out most to me.
Mercedes dragonfly poem might be the most intimidating way to start a NaPM I can remember. That one was one of my favorites of the entire month. The drogonfly/narcissus conceit was really wonderful.
Billy's made me laugh the most, especially with the lines: the pony too, what can i say/
i fed it rotten apples; neigh! Funny and irreverent. He even did the e.e. cummings lowercase i's that I hate.
Milo's fable actually read like a fable. I loved the content in that one.
Paul's frentic cadence was also fun to read.
There were moments I liked in a lot of others "throwing tomatoes at the page, toilet seat battles, and years of premature ejacuation, story's of pranks, "redemption", and good imagery. But those were the ones I liked from this day.
