i want you to make me love my country, with all the war and @#$%ing burocrecy i have i am ashamed to say fallen out of love with my country. and so i ask your help, make me a love potion of words.
i wish to forget about the mud slingings of polatitions and all that superficial @#$%.

-notes-
this contest is strictly for AUSTRALIAN citezens ONLY. i will check your pages. but i know that these can be changed. so i ask out of respect for me and my country that only australians participate. if you are not australian and i found out i will ask you to leave and if you don't i will DQ you.
ok rules
- you can use
stiky caps
swearing
erotica
but make sure it fits, because i will DQ you if it's just sensless swearing and porn. (can't see how erotica would fit anyway. lol)
please no religion i am an athiest and i don't want to debate right now, so leave god out of it.
this should go without saying, but do NOT bash on other poets or poems. you wouldn't like it nether will the other poets.
