But Wendy, for only $2 AUS I can invest in a state lottery which could win me $2,000,000.
This gamble (in what amounts to another lottery, really) of nearly ten times the outlay can only deliver a possible $2750.
Anyway, there is only one real competition for poetry - the time race.
Can we write a poem that can LAST - more than a decade, that is.
And a win in any other poetry competition can't guarantee that.
