you should really enter this :)

mmmk...where to start...ok well lately, everything has seemed pretty bland, nothing in life is very exciting anymore, weird but true well anyway i want to see some poems/lyrics that are different, not like the same old things that you read in like every poem on here...believe it or not it does get super old...


so here are some ideas, but don't be scared to think outside of the box...but not too far out...haha

. what are your main views and why do you have these views on life, and how does it affect life.

. do you have one of those people in your life that you absolutely can't stand? write about them and the way that they act, but not towards you...but how they act towards everyone else

. write a poem standing in a mirror...ok not literally but write a poem about yourself...not the ways that your heart is broken or the way that you look, but the way that you view yourself as an individual

. how do you view love and the effects of love [keep in mind...i want this to be something that is interesting and not the same as everything else, cause some poems seem really repetitious and I'm sick of seeing that...haha, so give me something new to read]



some rules and regulations:

. if you can't spell or don't have enough intelligence to click the spell check button when you're entering a poem...don't enter

. no sticky caps[i really don't see how someone could write an entire poem in that...?]

. swearing and profanity is perfectly fine to me

. I'm going to be totally selfish and ask you to comment on one of my poems

. put an awesome band/artist in your authors note or your favorite lyrics and who they're by


yeah that's about it, I'll get the points figured out when i see how much i like the 1st and 2nd place poems...haha and there might be honorable mentions...I'll see...haha

:::love always:::

  • I hate not for what you do to me; nay, that is but the beginning.
    It is what you do to those I love that affects me the most.

    Hey
    Just thought Id drop in and leave a note, you do know that automatically the 350 points go to the first place winner, so even if you hated it (why you would choose a poem you hate for first beats me) they get the 350 when you judge it. Just thought Id let you know

    umm... yeah i know that 1st automatically gets 350 but i mean it depends on how good the top poems are compared to the rest...

    If you wanted different poetry, why did you make the topic choices so dull and conventional?

    umm... ok, first of all why are you so concerned if you arent going to enter it? and i never said that you have to go specifically by the IDEAS that i put down, and if you really read at all you would notice that i said think outside of the box about...umm... yeah a bunch of times, so umm yeah really i'm not saying "FOLLOW THESE OR ELSE!!!" and my choices are most likely more creative than what you've written and if you dont think so then that's your opinion and you didnt enter anyway...so....go suck a big one...

    what the fuck do you mean i'm the idiot...? you were the one who really didnt read the contest right and went on to write some ignorant stupid comment about something you weren't going to enter...yeah i'm the idiot.........and i have a right to stick up for what i think too. just because you leave lame comments doesnt mean that i'm going to take shit for what i thought of, yeah sorry i stand up for what i think...and yes i did get defensive, for a good reason.
