Well, for the last couple days, I have been feeling pretty down, as well as writer's block setting in. I have a few options for you to choose from, hope you have fun with it.
-I'd like to see a story of pain. What brings on the paint hat you feel, whether it be an actual experience or just fiction. I'd like to see a minimum of a page on word, though, please, don't make it too, too long or else, I will lose interest. And no one wants a bad score going into this, do they?
-Again, I have been feeling a bit depressed these past few days, crying for whatever reason, that I'm not sure of. What I'd like to see is a poem of a maximum of 100 lines, please no more than that, it is okay if you accidentall exceed the limit, just don't enter a poem of 200 lines and hoping you'll stay in the contest. Automatic disqualification. Please write a poem of what brings on the depression in your life, for me, it can be anything; but more or less, it's the holidays.
-Now, I haven't done a list of words in a long time. I will give you three lists and though, if you want can use all the words, but only one list is required.
List A:
~Death
~Hell
~Fear
~Hope
~Dream(s)
~Darkness
~Nightmare(s)
List B:
~Angel(s)
~Demon(s)
~Honor
~Memoir(s)
~Suicide
~Cutting
~Sorrow
List C:
~Crimson
~Rose(s)
~Black
~Fallen
~Vampire(s)
~Sanctuary
~Cry (Crying/Cries)
::RULES::
1.Please, no sticky caps, they really bother my eyes. (ThIs Is StIcKy CaPs)
2.Please check spelling and grammar, what is a poem if it has no depth to it?
3. Profanity is allowed, but only if it is truly needed. I will not tolerate a poem where I read 'This b*tch stole my boyfriend, the f*cker that she is. I just want to f*ckin' ripe the d*mned head off that sl*t.' Another automatic disqualification.
4. I really don't think anywhere erotica is allowed, but if you must use it, keep it on the low. I have a boyfriend if I want to read erotic things.
5. Please, no other weird things to make your poem look unappealing. Make sure I can read it easily. I will ask you once to change the font colour/background to make it easier to read (I'm basically blind and can't see that well.) and if you don't, I'll make it easy on myself and just disqualify your ass, no matter if it's the best poem on the planet. If it's unaccesable to read, I won't stand for it.
6. Please put in the option you selected to do your writing on.
7. And most of all, have fun writing. It's not a poetry contest if you don't have fun.
Have a good day, Dark.

Gold? Wow. Thank you I'm glad you found my piece deserving of such honor. I honestly didn't think much of it as it just kind of came out without much thought. Perhaps I should try doing that more often, lol.
