A contest of the Darker Variety, but i still want depth, any thing skin-deep get's DQed
I made the banner atop that says moonshine and suicide, want one? Message me.
Facts:
Options Contest
Pre-writes allowed
NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART
------------------------READ ALL OF THE RULES----------------------------
RULES:
- first off I reserve the right to changes these as i see fit.
- Cussing allowed, but you over step it, and I DQ you without remorse.
- Option Number, goes in Author's box. one warning, 24 hours before disqualification. and just to make sure you understand AUTHORS NOTES
- If you can't take criticism, you better run for you money and get the hell outta this competition. If i don't like you poem, I'm gonna be blunt
- No erotica.
- NO CHAT SPEAK
- If you do dirty pretty, you better be GOOD at it!
- Put "Lycan lore, wholesome whore, breatheren bred, bloody bed!" in your authors box so i know you read the rules, and if you don't like contests that do that, well that sucks for you because I'm the one giving the points away here.
- NO RELIGION, this is loose though. I don't want "my god is so great i love him so much all you other followers are my breathren and i love you because he created you too ....." I don't mind " to heaven to hell (or along the river styx)" kinda stuff. Anything Considered Mythology is fine to write about, and yes keikou, that exception was for you.
- Up to 4 entries NO MORE.
- Username in your authors box. one warning before DQ'd.
- SPELL OUT YOUR WORDS not leet speak or chat speak or whatever the fuck you call it, unless it's mean to be used. ((For reference check out the song "fersuuure maybe" by The Medic Droid))
- Sticky caps = OkAY!
- all caps = NOT okay.
- This is a contest for POETRY, no stories. lyrics are ok under their option.
- The longer the poetry the better the chance, I'm a fan of about.... 3 stanzas or longer. You can enter short poems, but they better blow me away.... ((and please don't enter the 1000 line long epic poem of whoseitdarkheart kay, i DO have a limit to what i can stand, i have ADD, don't toy with me))
Now....
I've been saving up for a 1000 point contest, so this will be bing long hard and above all.... it better be good or i'm just going to close it. 5 honorables up, more to be added.
OK for this contest I don't want happy unless it's brief and is shattered by Grief
Style is up to you, I'm not so good with rhyming in my normal poetry moods, so i love both rhyme (well done mind you) and Free-writes
PLEASE use spell check I'm no Queen of the dictionary, but I can still expect you to use that blue link over the poem box.
I also want SUPER deep poetry, I want to think. Not every entry has to make my head spin in newfound ideas though.
I also LOVE dark stuff, I don't care if you write about your addiction to razorblades, the death of your love, or how the world hates you so you hate it and want to blow it to hell (or yourself w/e) i just want it DARK.
I also DONT want to hear Parrot talk, if every poem in one option is the same exact piece, i WILL delete them.
Objective: WOW me, make me think, follow the rules, make me sad, make my empathetic (god knows i need it), read the rules.......
