Okay guys. I've been having a crappy time for the past few months and I'd like to see some sad poetry. Or angry. I'm not picky. But absolutely NONE of that emo crap about cutting yourself or commiting suicide. You won't like me too much if you enter something like that. Also, I'm not a fan of poems with a lot of large words in them. I mean, it's great you have a large vocabulary and are probably ten times smarter than the rest of us here but theres no point entering something I can't understand.
Rules:
1. DoN't TyPe LiKe ThIs.
2. No suicide/ cutting yourself poems.(Unless it's the best poem ever created in the history of the universe, but even then I probably won't accept it) Poems about a friend's suicide is fine.
3. Don't bug me about judging. I'm a highschool student, I may have things to get done before I get around to judging.
4. Don't enter if you don't like honest judges. I won't just pat you on the back and say "Nice try!". If I don't like your poem, I'll tell you but I promise not to be a total jerk about it.
5. No erotic stuff. My poor virgin eyes couldn't take it.
6. Have fun and don't be afraid to show me what you got. I'm not looking for a pretty poem that uses a lot of fancy words or anything. Something simple and short could mean a lot more than all the eye candy on this site put together.
7. Break any of the rules and I'll have to DQ ya. So read them carefully.
Thanks and have fun!
