rendezvous with a dead man and then some

Do not enter if you're abnormally sensitive.


Look at the picture. Read the artist's comments. Then write.


-Left align
-Plain background
-No pictures
-Will remain open for at least two days (nothing guaranteed after that)
-I prefer non-rhyming poems. Free verse would be awesome.






Scoring:

-No comment= I didn't consider your poem anything special and decided to save myself from your complaining of my "critical" comments and calling me a jerk. Sometimes, I ignore this option and still comment. Why? Because I'm a poophead.

-One applaud= I liked it, however, it could use some more work.

-Two applauds= very well written, however, I didn't love it.

-Three applauds= You blew me away and I absolutely adore your poem.






I don't claim to be a great judge. I choose what amazes me.






Award:
1st 1000 pts (if applicable)
2nd 500 pts (if applicable)
3rd 250 pts (if applicable)
HM's 2 (if applicable)







Good Luck
