No Rules-2 Choices

Welcome, welcome one and all....

For this contest, I have two options for you....one is humor and one is more serious.
For the serious one, I want you to write a poem inspired by the beautiful works of Jerry Uelsmann. Who is that, you say?? A great artist.
Here is a link to his website, and I advise you to go through his art...

www.uelsmann.net

Just click enter, and then the gallery will be at the bottom of the page.

You may find one that you like right off, but if you keep looking, you may find one you like better....Or, you may not like him, but whatever. If you choose this, then please give me a link to the picture in your author's comments, or write the name of the picture.

Alright....on to the second choice. For this one, I want you to go to this website, and write something inspired by one of the pictures/jokes. You can also write your own "joke", or whatever you want to call it, just go to the site, and you'll see....They are at the bottom of the page....

Okay, have fun crazy people....
If you have a question, leave it at the bottom of the page....

Oh, wait....Where are the rules??? I killed them..... They are no more.

Love and Blessings, Ashlee

Get to writing!!

    great idea

    I would love to enter this contest, but i feel that this mans work is pure poetry in itself, and i don't think that if i'm honest with myself that i can do justice to any of the pictures. Good contest though, and happy judging!

    This does sound like a great contest and unfortunately I saw it too late. I am a bit tired right now to go surfing through webpages . However I wish you lots of great entries and fun with the contest....and who knows , a cup of coffee , and I might still change my mind ....

    I don't have time to enter your contest (and I doubt I would win against a poem called "I Sold Your Dog To A Chinese Restaurant" ) but I wanted to thank you for the link to Jerry Uelsmann's website. I recognized a lot of his work, but I had never known who did it. I also looked at his wife's site, whose art is also amazing and I had never heard of her.

    So thanks for adding some substance to my life .
