Quickie Cult - Round 4

♥ Welcome to the next round, where nine talented poets are still competing.



Gaylene (AliceinPoetryLand)
Scott (Griswold)
Kavi (i-Kavi-i)
Candy (Karamel Kandy)
Katie (kkatie55)
Esha (neon twilight)
Liz (peliroja)
Holly (PhantomsEcho)
Stefanie (x Empathic Rose x)



I've picked a few pictures I'd like you to use as inspiration. You only need to use one as inspiration, and I'd love you to make it as deep and metaphorical as you can.



You have eleven lines. Number of words is up to you. Remember, sometimes more is less.



Please have it done & submitted by Tuesday 4pm my time.
Take a look here to work out what time that is for you: http://allpoetry.com/board/topic/268548458



If you think it'll be easier to understand, use your author notes & let me know which photo you picked.




Wanna bee by Dariegirl





four sand clocks by S-t-r-a-n-g-e





Deserted paradise by mazskep







At the end of this round, one more of you will be eliminated. Best of luck!

    Scott, you have your own strong style and no one can take that away from you. You have many many trophies adorning your page; an indication of the spectacular poet you are. Thank you for your time and your poetry. I wish you all the best outside this contest.

    Ok, I'm a bit confused here, I scored a 93 and got eliminated when there were two poems that scored a 92 and one that scored a 91? That doesnt make a lick of sense to me. *shrug*

    Web of Lies = 93
    Slips away = 92
    Casting Climbs = 92
    Tender Tree = 91

    How is it I get eliminated? This is very odd.

      Yes, I'm sorry if that's a little confusing. It's based on overall scores, including previous rounds. All in all, you scored a few points less than the others.
      Does that make sense?
