This is a chance for you to vote for the winners of the one-line poetry competition!
You can read the description here.

Unfortunately one poll can only have up to 10 options, and there were many more submissions than that. For that reason, I will be creating at least 2 more threads to include all of the entries. Please read through all of them before voting!
Obviously I will have no way of knowing or preventing you from voting for your own submission. However, I would encourage you to carefully read through these single lines-- so many of them packed with beauty, significance, and eloquence--and really pick your absolute favorite.

Feel free to share your thoughts below and remember, these winners are 100% decided by your votes!

I say Wolf, for all wolves are not of the same sort; there is one kind with an amenable disposition – neither noisy, nor hateful, nor angry, but tame, obliging and gentle, following the young maids in the streets, even into their homes. Alas! Who does not know that these gentle wolves are of all such creatures the most dangerous!
