<<Where it's double space I need help>>

It would help it you left blanks where the words go. You did not double space anywhere. You did leave some ---- spaces.

If you only need help on two, why did you bother listing all nine poems?

1. procrastinating doesn't pay
2. too bland
3. your words convey
4. transcend the limitations
5. spontaneous, not planned
6. contaminated by that dirt
7. any punitive intention
8. devastated by drought
9. uniqueness of each
