If you dared enter shit, you will be told, then burned with acid and dragged naked behind a horse.

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on November 28, 2005
- Rewards: Gold: 300
- Final notes: I read most of the entires, but NO, I did not read and comment every poem on account of half the morons couldn't put two and two together...that being GOOD and POETRY in the same phrase.
Despite the pain I went through (oh yes, as if you really care) there were some good entries here.

You have now its suddenly changed. Don't you just love computers
Edited on Nov 21, 4:30 p.m. because 'spelling'. -
hmm... dragged naked behind a horse
I've never done that before in my life 
guess it's worth the try
best of luck to all who enter!
Leander -
dammit! I wanted to enter! oh well.
-
soz, everytime i do a contest, my favourites win
maybe if u werent so good id let you in
-
I see. well it's up to you of course. but I don't care if my favorites win haha, I figure they're on my list for a reason
-
DUDE! anyway.. I have nothing to enter so meh. Good luck with this. hahaha... there's lots of shit in there... blech.
-
yes god, i will stab myself soon!
-
Aw dammit, you had me all geared up to enter, and then..."You can't enter if you're on my favourites...sorry, I want new stuff from unknown authors." Bastard!
-
teehee, sorry
-
oh hon...as a person who's done an "anything" contest...good luck... it's tough judging.
<3 -
lol thanks
-
GREAT CONTEST
Good idea for rules. BRavo...I think on my next contest, I will be setting the same rule of no one on my favorites...it's extremely hard (especially when those you know, write quite well) I guess I should consider entering, for no other reason than dragged naked behind a horse sounds somewhat intriguing... (lol) Great idea for a contest. Hope to find something worthy.
Best Regards, Liz -
thanks
-
you are very brave to accept pre-writes and very wise to accept only one person
i've done this a few times for contests and the entries were excellent. i hope yours are too
-
ohh gosh, i hope they are good too
-

-

-
Goddamnit! I wanted to enter. A wink wink nod nod for LearningToJustBe. Phenomenal new poet here.
-
Thanks for hosting a great contest idea...although it's very hard to pick only one best poem, as I have more than a few written that I kinda like...
I've been at this awhile now...Good luck to all who enter...Be well, Poets... Wanda
-
Oh man....only one???? How ever will I chose?
Ha, oh well.
-
Looks like your stuck reading a lot of awful poetry lol sorry.
-
Heh. I hope you have someone helping you judge this. Sorry about the "One more poem."
-Arias' Son -
she suckered me into it.
now i'm going to drive up to her so i can slap her. -

christ, it's the last time i help you . hehe.
i have an opinion on it, talk to me on msn about it
-
oh me gode. zo much sheeeet to rrreed!
-
great contest Vaseline! I appreciate the timely judging and thank you for the bronze! CONGRATS TO ALL THE WINNERS!!!
Jo -
no, thank you for not being a dumbass and putting some great work in this. i get pissed when i do contest asking for pre-writen good poetry
never happens
sigh -
Ohh...I'm So Glad You Enjoyed mine.. have fun with -Rachel
-
quite welcome
-
So vaseline, am I in the category of 'Morons" who can't post a good poem or the category of "Morons' who can in your expert opinion??? If people take the time to post a poem, you could at least take the time to read them! And yes, I used to live in Quebec, so you are lucky I don't tell you off in French.... sigh~
-
oui, je suis désolé, je sais a quelle point sa puet etre difficile de mettre un poem deja ecrit dans un concours, oui oui, beaucoup d'effort. Voila, une medaille mon ami, est tu satisfait(e)?
et en passant, je me contre fiche si tu parle francais ou pas, dit moi ce que tu veut, question de voir si cela m'affecte. -
I know what you'd win a medal for..... Ms. arrogant of Quebec...
-
I would love to win that actually.
And by the way, you and I both know, if you had gotten the gold trophy, you wouldnt give a rats ass about whatever i sad in the final notes, so get over yourself -
You are mistaken, as I would be hanging on every one of your fascinating comments, and encouraging words regarding everyone who took the time to enter. As far as I'm concerned, you only posted the contest so you could bash people in the name of a "Poetry contest".
-
yeah, thats exactly it.
-
You are sorry, yeah right!! Your sarcastic attitude is very endearing. And yes, I'd love a medal from you. BTW, I entered that poem because it is one of my favorite poems. To borrow a phrase from you, I couldn't give a rat's a** about your opinion on whether I worked hard on the poem or not, nor if you think it is a good poem or not.
-
Congrats to the winners. Thanks for the mention glad you enjoyed the entry.
Should I snort now or later
Just kidding! I like getting back into the swing of things.

-
if you didnt care as much as you say, you would have dropped it a long time ago, and if you dont give a rats ass bout my opinion so much, why do you feel the need to constantly justify yourself for the reasons you entered the poem, geesh. get lost
-
Yea, Muddy & Jo!!! Congrats, LearningtoJustBe & the other honorable mentions...well done, Poets...Thank you, vaseline, for hosting a great (if not tedious to you) contest & for the honorable mention...Be well, Poets... Wanda

Once again, blinded by your arrogance, you fail to see that I am not trying to justify my poem. If I were to host a contest for the "Snob of AP" you'd win the gold trophy in a walkover. In that type of a contest, you'd be like a shark vs a school of guppies, if your poetry reflected your personality.
-
Congratulations to the three winners and thanies for the mention
-
you and i are both strangers to each other, as far as i am concerned, youre as big a dumbass as i am. look around,youre the only one bitching. so why dont you set an example for this arrogant little girl and stop your whining.
-
congrats to the winners and I want to thank vaseline for the second chance with this poem...btw...I waited to comment...ya know, kinda let the shit die down a bit...persistant cat he is. Good luck ..lol...thanks again...arrogance becomes you big wide grin
Peace Muddy -
That is precisely the type of response I would have expected from a person of your obvious limitations. Your difficulty lies in the glaring fact that you do not apparently possess the intelligence to understand the work. Your life must be terribly burdened and I truly am saddened by that.

Congratulations to the winners, and thank you for the mention.
