Competition No. 2664: In two minds

Lucy Vickery presents the latest competition

issue 18 September 2010

In Competition 2664 you were invited to submit a dialogue, in verse or prose, between two parts of yourself at odds with one another.

As usual, verse entries vastly outnumbered prose ones. In an excellent field, Brian Murdoch, Adrian Fry, Bill Greenwell and Fergus Pickering stood out. Basil Ransome-Davies scoops the bonus fiver for a hilarious exchange between id and superego.
