[John Whitworth]

You might have been wondering why I was keeping this from you. Firstly, it isn't a verse they want, and secondly, every now and again, they don't put the Competition up on the on-line version. So none of you can see it.

OK. Chris O'Carroll won top money for a fine 'excoriating' review of 'The Lovesong of J. Alfred Prufrock. Shame you can't see it. Congratulations to him.. Here is this week's comp.
