In this contest, all you have to do is write a good poem and have it interesting enough so that I don't fall asleep.
Unfortunately I don't like non rhyming poems very much so in this contest, I'm going to ask that ALL POEMS RHYME.
I don't like it when people enter more than one poem. It annoys the hell out of me because you could get two prizes and that's not how it should work.
So. One poem. Or both are out.
The funny thing about this is that the title should stand for every single emotion. So put em all in!
But
there's a catch.
No prewrites and the title of the poem has to be a color. Any color.
Don't interpret colors as a bad thing such as 'white'- does white have to be pure and clean and good? Maybe it can symbolize confusion?
If I find someone doesn't have a color as their title, their poem will be taken out.
That's too bad, huh? Guess what- at the end of the day I can go to sleep without caring.
PLEASE, I know that you can submit anything- just please. I don't want to see everyone submitting things all labeled "Black". You don't have to do primary colors either, go crazy with it. Aqua green, Magenta. I don't want to see red, blue, and green all over the place- that gets boring!
So here are your rules.
1. NO . CHAT. SPEAK. +h4+ m34n5 +h15-
I CAN NOT READ THAT.
2. NO WRITING LIKE THIS. RAWR. SHOUT SHOUT SHOUT. OK?
That'll make you look a bit stupid. I think that is the DUMBEST way to write a poem.
3. If YoU WrItE lIkE tHiS i WiLl KiLl YoUr PuPpY.
Get it? Got it? Good.
4. MUST RHYME.
5. MUST HAVE A COLOR AS THE TITLE.
Uppercased those to catch your attention.
6. Have fun.

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on July 22, 2007
- Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 120, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 3 people
- Final notes: Though there were only a few poems, I thought they were all really good and that's what made this so sad. I decided to put in three honorable mentions [Trying to get rid of these points anyways] for the other three poems. Doesn't matter about the order of the HM, I thought all of the poems were good. I'm going to hold another contest sooner or later, so look out for that one.
Thanks for entering all of the beautiful writes
