Give me your newest!
Surprise me with interesting subjects to write about- don't give me "flowery poems" just about how pretty nature is or TRADITIONAL angsty poems about how no one understands you. I like random, interesting, and the philosophical when it comes to poetry. I like the dark, happy, funny, serious, dramatic, historical, mythological, thought-provoking, love, slightly erotic, personal, random, etc. So you have tons of freedom for this contest!
You don't have to, but if you would LIKE a prompt you can write about this quote from a song, "Stand your ground, this is what we are fighting for!" (But if you relate it to soldiers in Iraq, you won't win)
Good Luck!
