Submit your best poem; the one where you feel you did your absolute best of the bestest in writing skills. I know there's two or three of my own that I feel are pretty good but THAT is certainly NOT the point here; I'm looking for YOUR poetry and I'm sure it will be AWESOME
If you excel at dark, go for it..if you excel at sensual/erotica...definitely go for it
. If you do better with form poetry or the short and sweet minimum line poems, go for that; you get the idea. Just PLEASE PLEASE no self harm, cutting, or suicide poems; things in life are depressing enough without them...
No sticky caps or street lingo
No use of the "f" word (please..no)
No bashing other poets or their poetry; be courteous
Enjoy yourselves
I wish to thank you ahead of time for being able to read awesome poetry, for the friendships I've made, for the support and kindness I found but most of all, thank you for being able to share my heart. These are things that will mean the world to me for years to come...
