Want to enter!
So where's the entry spot for a new poem? Ugh...I can't wait 'til I get used to AP! This is a major challenge to my damaged brain. Who knows? I just might be healed! -

Hi, I don't know if you've found the answer to your question about entering a new poem as the entries are anonmymous to me. However, the way to enter a new poem is to find where it says 'enter this contest' in bold. There are five bullet points after it, the bottom bullet point says 'enter a new poem,' just click on 'new poem.'
