Hello, this is my first contest on AP, I've never really wanted to start one until about two weeks ago. Hopefully there will be entries and people will enjoy themselves. So about the contest.
There are many choices, five word banks, eight pictures to choose from and three lyrics and two prompt s to get your imagination flowing. Anything goes, so long as it is strong, imaginative, full of imagery and well written.
So here are your options(you can combine as many as you want-so long as you let me know which ones to use).
Work Banks:
1)
Obscure, Intentions,Grim,Prison,Isolation,deception,subtle,clutch, presence,clever,rain,zone,vivid
2)
Abyss, trash, horror abysmal, gravitate, imperfect, clutch, presence, clever, rain, zone, vivid
3)Clouds, desire, fantasy, hot, burial, indigo, clutch, vivid, zone, rain
4) Bliss, heartless, enrapture, de-sanctify, eclipse, image, clutch, presence, vivid, rain, clever, zone
5) Poison, invisible, spawn, crown, barren, find, fear, clever, image, presence, rain, earth

Lyrics
1)Please let me haunt as scent on your pillow
Letters of past all tear stained and wrinkled- AFI
2) Awakening, pulled from the tomb
Her spirit freed eclipsed the moon
That She outshone as a fallen star
A regal ornament from a far flung nebular- cradle of filth
3)We have found her in Supernature,
In the rain and in the dust.- Inkubus Sukkubus
Prompts
1) A solitary tear upon a stone gypsie's glassy cheek
2)pretty prancing in the meadow.
Rules-there had to be some...
If you're going to do a short story, then tell me that you'd like to do so.
No less the 8 lines, no more then 70
Pre-writes are allowed as long as they fit into the options.
No bashing my comments or others poetry.
I probably won't disqualify anyone,
the only exception is if your work is so horrible I can't stand it(lets hope that it doesn't.
Please use standard English (unless you're choosing to write in a different language).
If you'd like to write something in a different language(which is interesting) please translate it so that others can understand.
Things I'd rather not have to read- anything about poop...or honestly about Jesus either....I don't mind spirituality, but uhm....I'd rather not hear religous ferver... that's about it.
Please put "Blissful Poison Faerie Nymph" in your authors comment box, so I know that you've read this.
Have fun everyone, I look forward to some good entries.
