Welcome again for those of you who have ever entered my contests before. I must admit I have been here for what seems like a long time and I am finally ready to hold my first real contest.
Anyway now that is out of the way. My name is Damien I'm am your insane judge. Currently I have been looking through most of my old poetry and came up with some new options.
1) Currently I have been reading alot of H.P. Lovecraft and so here is a topic. Write a poem to correspond with what you get from this quote:
"I am writing this under an appreciable mental strain, since by tonight I shall be no more. Penniless, and at the end of my supply of the drug which alone, makes life endurable, I can bear the torture no longer; and shall cast myself from this garret window into the squalid street below. Do not think from my slavery to morphine that I am a weakling or a degenerate. When you have read these hastily scrawled pages you may guess, though never fully realise, why it is that I must have forgetfulness or death."
2) Write a love poem as Death falling in love with someone he must kill.
3) S&M Madness write your most wildest kinkiest fantasy.
4) Write about going insane (how you write it is your business.
5) Write anything that has to do with any of the four terms written in the title.
I hope to actually get entries into this contest, and pleas I beg of you have logical stopping points for your poems I realy don't have the time to read a 300 line poem. Any questions or comments please contact me. Good Luck -Damien
I have only one rule for this contest, and no it's not no foul language (fuck that) if cursing helps get your point accross then by all means, And no it's not erotica could care less look at the 3rd topic (good times) but my one rule in your author's comment box thing tell me what option you choose and why. Thank you.
