Oh, Christine, for once it seems appropriate to say, with a solemn face, "thank you for sharing that. It was very brave."
However, it's not that "bad" and it amused me greatly. May I suggest you start a new folder "Possible Competition Entries" and keep it there to await the right opportunity to loose it on the world. It might scrub up quite well in that capacity (and if you're worried about your reputation you can always use a pseudonym). You are among repeat offenders in this forum. Welcome to it.
And meanwhile, do we not all have juvenilia that now give us that existential shudder? May I adapt the "Rawhide" theme to my purpose and urge you: "Look 'em out, put 'em up!"
