Most of us know what it's like to win a trophy in a contest and most of us unfortunately know what it feels like to be a loser as in not win nuttin....
Give me a humorous example of your speech at the podium in accepting a gold trophy from the contest holder...how it changed your life and made you feel like you were worthy, no longer an outcast, a misfit....
How it picked you back up, out of the filth of the gutter and made your life whole again...
and after that on the same page... flip the coin and give the contest holder your honest, no sugar coated "thoughts" how you felt not getting a trophy when you so rightly deserved one. Yes, you can be a sore loser if you wanna be.
Get silly be ridiculously honest and have fun :)

Dear contest holder,
you must be psychic
I feel this contest could change my life ( though I smiled at Individuality's correct assessment of the cup a soup dilemma rofl ) if I get a trophy I know it helps prevent global warming as there is no need to polish it and wash the duster, therefore it is helping to save our planet and that is why it is a gift to be at the podium with my emoticon lmao
As for being a sore loser, Dear Abbey was right, each of her 501 letters are pinned to my wall reminding me that 'tis not the winning but the taking part that counts, though I threw the envelopes away as they were addresssed intrepid loser, so you lost another contest, Saddo Lane postcode LMAO LOST
Another zany contest from your cwazy quest to spread smiles across cyberspace and every poets face
-
-
LMAO,hey you must be psychic in order to know that i'm psychic
We should have a meeting of the minds and psych each other out, hold on a second though...let me go find mine, it seems to have wandered off or oft or is that off-ed
thanks Yvette..giggling like mad here
-
-
gal you are sometimes too much! I nearly choked to death laughing ( and in all honesty it's in my top three way to go if you have go endings lol ! )
my psych must have wandered oft
I looked in the cookie jar
and then above in the loft
was I switched on or perhaps off
the thought of a nose being told
to at least tap the keyboard please
induced giggle-icious giggles
'til I coughed the psyche off-ed!
Indeed when I find my right mind
from where it has been left
it will meet yours
and won't then be bereft!
Am sure whether we had a night out
or a giggly girly night in
we could psych and mine the mind
and feel tickled by what we find!
luv ya lot's
let's have our vodka shots!
-
-
LOL..you crack me up hugely
Well i suppose
i could type with my nose
It would do me no harm
til a buy a new arm

I'm A Gold Trophy Whore (Monchielle)
by ~Gregg Rowe~
I’m a gold trophy whore
I count my syllables –
Find my beat, meter, sound –
I watch subject, object,
Predicate, verb and noun
I’m a gold trophy whore
Every morning I rise
In pain and sit to write
Demons are angry -- I
Toss them in mortal light
I’m a gold trophy whore
I have studied, read, heard –
Find the here, avoid there:
Write to damask the masks
Day and night that you wear
I’m a gold trophy whore
I ask these three questions:
Suppose, what if and why
Then I enter a trance
Penning poetry I cry
Author notes
*To Write A Monchielle (Monchielle)
by Starhiker
allpoetry.com/Column/1616570
If you decide to write a Monchielle of your own, I would be honored if you put "Monchielle" in the title of your poem, and add the following to the Author's Comment:
Many of you may not be familiar with a Monchielle, it is a form that Starhiker created... A Monchielle is as such; first line repeats in each stanza, four stanzas in total, consisting of five lines, each of six syllables, and lines three and five rhyme. The pattern is "Abcdc Aefgf Ahiji Aklml"...

thanks Gregg, its been a long time - do hope you are well and thanks for the creativity left on my page. I've a feeling the Monchielle is named for Starhiker's wife Monica
Hey i do hope he's giving you a commission on adverting his new form
Enjoyed, thanks!
