Family Time

Hey guys! I'm back! Ive finally gathered enough points for another contest...Had writers block lately and haven't rally been getting out and reading other poetry but I'm out of that now and I wanna read YOUR work!

So here's what I would like. Lately I've been having problems with my family as it shows in my last couple of writes and I want to hear about your family life. I want to know how you connect with your family, are you close? Are you the farthest thing for a family? Does one of your family members abuse you? How do you feel about it? I've skinned myself raw in allot of my poems and felt pretty vulnerable and that's what I would like you guys to do. I want to feel your pain, I want to feel your happiness. I would like you to feel vulnerable and tell everything.

This contest is for 300 points which will go to first place. Second and Third will get applause and possibly some points depending on my point situation. All poems will be commented on.

The Rules
1. Cursing kept to a minimum
2. You can enter twice.
3. Only ONE pre-write!!
4. Not a necessity but please comment on one of my poems or another poets in the contest, it a nice thing to do..we all love feedback right?
5. Have fun!
