ACTUNG 2x's: I BET YOU ALL THOROUGHLY DETEST ME BY NOW FOR NOT JUDGING THIS YET. SORRY. I HAVE A LIFE AND LATELY IT AD CALLED FOR MUCH MORE ATTENTION AND IMPORTANCE THAN THIS  SORRY. I'LL JUDGE IT THIS WEEK. THAT IS A PROMISE I CAN KEEP.




INTRO:

Here's your topic:
December! Another December has rolled around  Well, I was thinking...December's a month with alot of moods  For Example: Hallow, howling winds and biting frost gives a sense of eerie loneliness and betrayal. Harmonious Christmas carols and kids playing in the snow makes you think of the little things that light up life. The blank, falling snow covering up your little world reminds you of emptiness, even sorrow and the bleakness of life. And coming home to your special someone or your family for the holidays fills your heart with love and abounding joy (aww!!) ...Those are just examples..I'm sure you can think of LOTS more      
SO WHAT?? Well, * I WANT YOU TO BASE YOUR POEM'S INNER EMOTION / THEME OFF OF ONE OF THE EMOTIONS YOU, as a poet, SEE IN ~DECEMBER~...


() Use similes, metaphors, alliteration, assonance, form, colourful vocabulary, onomatopoeias, oxymorons, personification, any "literary devices" your little heart desires  (please make these know by bold-facing them or explaining in authors notes)

USE ANY EMOTION be creative, original, unique, descriptive and be a poet!!  Use any emotion you want, love, rage, emptiness, heartache, depression, guilt, joy, happiness,....ANYTHING!!




RULES: (OBEY MY COMMANDS OR BE DISQUALIFIED: you're now in SUIGENERIS's COUNTRY...It's a dictatorship, so what I say, GOES!!
pounds fists*    
no erotica
I don't want to read the same poem 20x's people..put some effort into it.
> I WILL delete the contest if I'm not getting what I want
> comments on my poetry are nice..but not mandatory  
> Spell-check DOES NOT BITE
> I don't care if you enter a suicide, cutting,extremely heart-wrenching poem, just keep the gore to a minimum
> cussing is allowed,,,just don't trash the poem.
>  no religion bashing,,,you accept mine, i accept yours. Ok?
>follow the rules
> have fun


That's ALL Folks!! Get to it!!
if you have ANY questions, feel free to bother me as much as you'd like with IM's,,,i really don't mind,,,i like the attention,, and i don't bite


Can't wait to see what you all come up with. Go amaze my numbed little senses now!! WRITE WRITE WRITE!!!

    : - L dont piss me off and i dont care what you think!!Look, i am greatful that you helped me with this, if you're just flaring up at me coz you're used to getting trophies..well then go judge your own contest! and as for being a "child" If you knew me better than a mere "hello" and reading my authors page, you'd know that's the last word that fits my description.
    I think we've both got some learning to do.

    your a joke...get over your mistake.......its not about win or lose...its about common respect for your entries...they deserve comment......you still fail to see the light...comments are what make this place go round....ecouragements such as I took the time to tell you in the beginning......I dont need trophies...Im very well versed to produce writings worthy.......again....admit your wrong and move on...im done with you...get pissed at yourself for being a jerk......not at me for trying to help you in future endeavors......now let it go....im done with this stupidity

    Well dont you think its a little late in the game for me to bow down and say "ohh, hey now i understand, im so sorry, ill incorporate what you've told me and show some respect with comments that act like the heartbeat of AP, i never ment to create so much confusion!!" ...there..said it...that's my honest reponse to you, dear Malabu
    I hope i havent damaged any further realtions on AP
    ..i do have a long ways to go::sigh:: dont i?
