RULES!!!
Dangit! Yeah I know, rules suck. Too bad.
1. Pay It Forward haha
2. no length limit but don't bore me! (thats means don't be two sentences unless you think you can sum up the worth of the universe in those two sentences)
3. Let me know in your authors notes what genre you are going for, if you are not sure then put 'personal' but you MUST have this or you will be kicked out no matter how awsome your poem may be!
4. Themed are cool, just make sure I can tell okay?

phrases...
9. Love poems rock so yes go ahead just make it stand out....if you can...
10. Feel free to read my poems to see what I like, I have all kinds of different styles I like but know that what is most important is that it is unique and stands out and makes an impression.
11. Pictures are okay but if the picture rocks and the poems sucks I'm gonna deduct you for false advertising.

By the way, more points are on their way!

Concerning genre, does it have to be only one? One would be a little too narrow for mine, so is two ok?

Of course!

but remember they HAVE to fit the poem so choose them wisely!

Thank you very much and congrats to all...
