I don't care about your anything but the feeling.
Now, that said; I want it expressed in a poetic way.
Not just:
I feel blue.
My shoe
Is untied
I think I just died.
You know, I really am sorry for your shoe. But It doesn't belong in my poetry contest, mmkay?
Thanks for dropping by.

"You know, I really am sorry for your shoe. But It doesn't belong in my poetry contest, mmkay?"
lmao. this looks like a good one. -
-
Yep, it's going to be interesting reading Danielle's bitchy comments about how many people really will write poetry that poorly. This certainly will be an interesting contest, with a lot of bad entries.
Perhaps you will be awesome and excite Danielle with a good entry?
-
-
Let the barrage of emo, amateur poets using poetry as a placebo begin.

I'm sorry Danielle, you're going to read a lot of baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad poetry.
Or you can throw your hands in the air and either let Amunet judge it for you, or remove enough entries to get four entries and then remove the contest?
Until then, I must enjoy this show. =) *sits down* -
I will definitely enter two fresh writes. Good luck with the contest, and good luck to anyone who enters!
-
BOOKMARKED!
And I'll get back to you on that contest. School starts in a couple days and I have to figure out how much of a pain it's going to be. -
-
Come back if you hadn't. It's supposed to be open.
-
-
Ha- you're going to be a busy bee with this contest. Thirty-four entries, and it's only been open for three hours?
:-( Please don't explode; I'd miss my Danielle if that happened. -
-
XD. Why is this fucking closed? I am a MASOCHIST. I WANT THOUSANDS OF ENTRIES
-
-
Because you drew the entry limit at 60, maybe? ... Try setting it at zero. See if that reopens the contest; you sexy sunshine woman.

Fixed. Thanks. I'm a blonde underneath all the evil.

awesome contest..... i gave it my best poem (in my opinion) -

Awesome contest. BOOKMARKED. -

... You are an outstanding poet; I loved your poem at the top (short, succinct):
I feel blue.
My shoe
Is untied
I think I just died.
I will continue this if I feel justice is paid.
My eye
Just let
A tear
On a fly.
Tye fly
Is drowning
In a cup
I think it's giving a hiccup
The fly
Is dead
And we're both ahead
Looking
Lost and lonely
With no-one else
The fly, (and me)
Are dead:
In the afte-er-life.

-_- I hope so. You offering? I'm only going to comment on the finalists. Because DAYUMN. I didn't expect such an outcry of...."art"
-
-
Titter. Yes! Everyone has FELLLLLLT poetry. Everyone's writing about slit wrists... I'd wish they'd press harder against their skin.
I'll cojudge, snookie, if you want me to. I'll be a bitch on comments though, just so you know.

You should.
I want to see how many I can read before I die.

This is one reason why I would not run prewrite contest...169 and still growing...I wonder if I should add to this madness...I think after you read all these poems...a poem of torture will be the felt poem in your very next life...
