Titles For Everyone!!!

So I was browsing through radio stations for ideas for poems. I wrote down a whole bunch of random sentences from some of the songs to try to inspire me. I was looking at them and realized they made great titles for poems. So I've decided to make a contest. I think we all know how title contests work. Just choose a title and use it for your poem. You can write in any style and any category. I may extend the deadline if I want more entries. And the amount of points may change as I accumulate more points... I may add some honorable mentions too...

First the RULES:

1. Use spell check
2. Keep swearing to a minimum
3. No pre-writes
4. No sticky caps/chat lingo
5. Have fun

6. You can write things in your author but PLEASE don't put in anything that would identify yourself (such as a name or reference to anything or anything showing that you know who I am), it's anonymous for a reason...

7. Try to use a title that no one else has... I'm going to try to remove them after they get used a few times but just try to use different ones. There's a lot so I'm sure you can find one to use...




Now the TITLES:

Flying First Class
Living My Lie
Let's Give Them Something to Talk About
Leave a Happy Home
Too Much Time On My Hands
Like We've Opened Up the Door
Live Like a Refugee
Calamity
Kicked You Around Some
It Never Will Again
Windows Down
The Surface Breaks
Come Alive At Night
I've Got Problems Up To Here
I Can't Deny
Twilight Hours
Sitting By a Fire On a Lonely Night
Who's To Say
Hanging Over From Another Good Time
You're My Heroin
No Stopping Curiosity
Smoke the Sun
Shot in the Dark
Home is a Feeling I Buried in You
I Prefer to be By Myself
It Only Hurts When I Breathe
I Drink Alone
Your Hope is What I long For
I've Forgotten What I'm All About
Take a Piece of Me
It's Not My Love
Talking 'Bout People
Playing On The Edge
It Took a Rumor
Make Me All I've Failed to Be
One Chance to Speak to Your Heart
Break My Heart
The Finer Things
Under Oath
He Let His Daughter Know

 

Well I will let you all loose now.... please me my fellow poets...

 

 

Have Fun!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ UPDATE: I would like more entries to choose from because there's only 14 [I'm not saying the ones here aren't good... I'm just saying that I would like more of the titles to be used... there's 40 so I want a decent amount of entries]. So I've decided to extend the contest another week: April 13. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I will not extend it again... just this one time. Thank you for your patience.

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on April 13, 2007
  • Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 100, Bronze: 50, Honorable mention: 3 people
  • Final notes:
    I had a lot of fun reading the entries for this contest. There were a few titles that I thought were interesting but nobody used them. But that's okay. Everyone did a good job with the titles they used. The winners were chosen but the message within their poem, the flow and imagery, and the quality of the poem overall. Congradulations to the winners. And good luck to all in future contests.

    Isn't that comment telling you who he/she is? Anyway. I think this was a good contest, normally I can't come up with new stuff when I try (it just has to happen), but I was searching contests today because I just really wanted to write something and I needed some inspiration and I found it! I'm thrilled! So thanks, and I hope you're happy with the way this contest turns out. Take care, dear!
