call me crazy but it’s been done before.
I want to read your pre-writes or brand-new poems.
A fresh write does not have a better chance of winning - all poems are equal.
Any subject is fine.
Swearing and erotica are fine.
Rhyme is fine.
Form poetry is fine.
No line limit.
ONE RULE ----- ONE ENTRY PER PERSON
I prefer free-form but that doesn’t mean rhyme or form can’t win a trophy.
I judge fairly according to what I like.
If you don’t know what kind of poetry I like then check out my work or my favorites.
I will probably add more points as I earn them.
