Interesting contest I never would have thought of one like this at all LOL. do we get to write about more than 1 ex? LOL sorry I ask because to write a 30 line poem I got 2 exs that could cover those requirements but I understands the no cursing rule smart rule to have
any ways I got this book marked
-
-
you can enter a poem for each then lol
-
-
There's absolutely no way I could write a poem about my recent ex without using every cuss word available to me. So..I would fail at this. But, I do have a pre-write about my deceased husband..maybe I'll enter that.
-
i hope you dont mind, but my poems 1 line more. its the shortest one i had that i thought i could use. i am at your mercy lol
-
no way i could do this in less than 30 lines and w/o cussing. great idea tho
