Prewrites

In this contest I only want prewrites. Due to the amount of entries I am allowing in, all poems that do not have a chance of winning will be removed without comment or warning. This will be open until the end of the weekend. I will read and judge the entries after the contest is closed. Good luck to everyone!

        LOL wow- 97 poems. My brain would explode into smithereens by the time i got to 97.

        On the bright side, if you do this all in one day you'll most likely get a free gold membership.. it looks like you've already got one though.
