Give Me Dark With These Quotes


Right, well I wont lie to you - I'm fucking miserable. I don't normally swear on my writes or on this site, but I think today is my ultimate exception. Yesterday was shit too. I worked hard, got an annoying fuckwit try to fuck me, my boyfriend blamed me for his parents splitting up and wants to talk to his friends (any one will do apparently) not thinking about me. I'm not selfish or anything, but I like the support to be mutual. I help him, he helps me and he just fucking... Urgh, I'm sorry guys, I'm just so pissed off right now. I lost my temper with the guys in my class today and I am so close to getting violent with something or someone (something I NEVER do, even if they attack me first, usually so you know it's serious).

OK so I got you some quotes to look at and I hope that you can make them good. I know I normally say try your best but you know today isn't my day, if you hadn't noticed. Do what you do and if I don't like it or find it bad, I'll remove you, so others can get the spaces and I wont be wasting my time (no offense, but I think sometimes people can do better but just don't, as they get lazy and just chuck any old thing in).

Rules.

1. Don't fuck around with the judge, she doesn't need it *growl*

2. Don't fuck around with other contestants - don't be a knob, it's not clever.

3. Don't use sticky caps, automatic DQ, no questions asked!

4. Can swear and use erotica. Who fucking cares you sexy shit?

5. Can enter more than one entry.

6. Can enter a prewrite, but must be relevant (and obvious) to one of the quotes (or a couple).

7. Write quote in authors comments or in the entry. Basically, I want to see it. If I don't, you'll not be warned, I get sick and tired of warning people! I'll probably just keep you in and just not give you a trophy. Simple enough?

8. Be creative and use your mind. Think outside the box, too. I love those writes that think outside the box and make you think.

9. Creativity is a great plus.

10. It's good being literate, so try to be if you can!

11. Just use literary techniques (i.e Metaphor, Satire) to the best of your ability.

I don't expect you to be genius's but I don't expect you to be slackers either :). So please just keep this in mind. Cheer me up and make me feel like getting deep into my poetry, not make me feel like junk (or give me junk) for that matter.

Dark / Sad / Abstract / Philosophical / Psychological entries preferred.
