A Plethora of One-Liners

Okay. So. I've got all these ideas for poems. But alas... no actual poems. That's where you come in~ yay!

This is an options contest! If you are inspired by one of the following ideas pen me the most beautiful pieces of art you've ever created to be molded around it.

The topics are:

Lipstick stains && Soggy Ciggarettes
Faded Jeans && Those Old Cassettes

Baby-
Show a little skin
[&& bone]

Her body became an archeology site

[Cold] Coffee && [Cheap] Champagne

I'm not an unfaithful woman-
But I'll never be true to you.

I'm buried beneath the bedsheets
where the thought of you still sleeps.

Notes on Napkins
In All Night Diners

Blissful yet Ignorant
But she was never Innocent

I can't afford that bottle, dear
Cuz we both know there is
another reason why we're here

Broken Down
Bulimic
Beauty Queen

Caught in Compulsive Lies
We Mildly Modify
To meet our Means & Memories-
To Betray Decisively

Poor little rich girl

To think we'd find ourselves
Outside Ourselves

Ciggarettes & Maraschino Cherries
(submitted by Suzanne Dia)


If you're not satisfied with one of those you could steal one of the lyrical quotes from my AP homepage- there are very many.

If you are still not satisfied with that supply of quotes message me your own one liner and I will add it to the list (if I like it) or Submit a poem based around your own one-liner~ of course with the quote included in your Author's notes.

Rules:
1 Any Form Any Length
(But I'd prefer Dirty Pretty
OR Prose for this contest)
2 Readable background
3 I prefer well-writen rhyme
4 But I also enjoy free verse
5 Play nice with the other boys&girls
6 Unlimited entries for good writes
7 AP name in Author's Notes with Option

    god I have so many of these. so so SO many.
    and I hate them all because they glimmer like they could be amazing... then nothing happens. and they sit there in their kickass-ness and taunt me.
    reghuewg. I may be able to squeeze something out of my muse for this one. good contest, for sure.
