How to Keep the Door Closed
First, learn the architecture of safety. Understand that walls are not cruelty —they are memory. They are the places you learned to survive when no one else knew how to hold you. Run your hands along them. Notice how solid they feel. This is the strength you built alone.

Public Announcement Challenge Winners
For the Public Announcement Challenge, writers were asked to work inside voices built for control. These were notices, warnings, and updates meant to inform rather than confess. The strongest entries committed to that form and didn't break from it. Corporate memos, formal government alerts, and internal policy language were held consistently, allowing emotion, fear, grief, or humor to surface indirectly through pressure rather than declaration. The following poems recognize the voice of authority, and let human feeling slip through despite all its rules and restraint.
