At the close of another year, what are your thoughts on the past one, and your hopes for the new one.
No real word limit, but I am busy this week, so the shorter, the better.
Please check your spelling and grammar; I am very anal about them.
If you want more than just a "thank you for entering" ask for a critique in your notes. Otherwise, you will get the former.
IMPORTANT! Place your name at the end of the poem. I have ignored entries because they did not do this. Good entries, that would have won. I do not want to ask a mod to make it non-anonymous. It helps me keep track of the short list when judging.
No particular style is requested. However, if is it unusual, or you are not sure I will recognize it, give the form in your notes.
Please read this list again.
I do not remove entries for not following the rules. However, I do delete offensive material, whether an entry or a comment. Please respect my right to do so.
I am not nasty or judgmental when critiquing; but I am honest about it. If you feel that you cannot take that, do not ask for a critique.
Well wishes.
