Welcome poets to the finals!! Last week was crucial and swift. Now, it is time to see who will be the next Champion in Poetic Challenge!!!

 

 

Only five remain, and all have penned sheer brilliance all season.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This week will make or break your place in this challenge.

 

 

 

 

All of you have worked hard, but your skills will be tested one last time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Let’s roll on!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Your final challenge will be as follows:

(I must warn you that if each and every rule is not STRICTLY followed… you will not be nominated for first place.

 

 

 

 

 

We want two poems… about the same thing. One of them is to be in STRICT form (meter, count, rhyme all required) The second is to be freeverse. Both poems are to be on the same page… there is no linking to another page allowed.

 

HINT: select a form that is challenging. Do not make me regret that we have not assigned you each a form!! As for the freeverse, using rich metaphors and creativity is what will save you!

 

I will allow any genre, but do not bore us!

 

The following are all required to be listed in your authors comments:

1. Why do you feel that you deserve to win this challenge?

2. Your opinion about this challenge.

3. Leave three links to your best work throughout this challenge. (Select these carefully)

 

 

Okie dokie!

 

 

Now for the scoring. We will FAIRLY judge. Your final challenge will be scored from 1-100. Your links will be revaluated and scored from 1-10.

 

I will ask two judges (unknown as of right now) to step in and make a vote based on your final piece, as well as all links. They will be asked to score each poet from 1-100.

 

 

All points will be tallied.

 

Hence, the winner will be revealed!!

 

 

So I wish all of you the very best of luck!

 

 

Deadline: August 30,2007 @ 6 p.m. (est)

    *sighs in relief* Man this took me awhile but I finally have it ready. Sorry to turn it in only one day before the deadline but I really wanted to take all the time I could to work on it.

    Good luck to everyone and thank you for the inspirational if not roller coaster season.

    wait... I have a question. when you say strict form does that mean that every one of them has to have rhyme and meter or just form? Because some forms do not use rhyme and meter. Like the form I chose does not require either... I can indeed use both and I can make it work I was just confused on the requirements.

        *takes a deep breath* I hope! I just am having so much trouble finding a topic within myself to inspire me. I like prompts because they help ignite my mind a little... I'm just drawing blanks right now. I will pull it together soon enough though... believe me I WILL!!
