Poetic challenge: A New Beginning!!!

HI everyone…. It your hosts luckynsincere & Arkbear!!! We are seeking poets with a desire to learn and improve their skills by joining our challenge : Poetic Challenge.

  

We have had several successful seasons so far, and we are anxious for another.

  

So what is it that we want?

 

We are seeking poets that will be consistent through a 8 to 10 round challenge. Each round there will be one or more poets eliminated.

 

We want poets that are serious about poetry.

 

This season we will allow anyone to enter as long as you are at least 16 years old.

 

There will be challenges that require forms, there will be challenges that require freeverse, and there will be a challenge that requires team effort.

 

We want fresh poetry. We want to see poets try their best to give us what we want. We know that perfection is impossible; but as long as you give us your best, you will go far in this challenge. The grand prize will be AT LEAST 2000 points. There will also be chances along the way to snag trophies and points for your efforts.

  

This will be fun. This will be difficult… still interested??? Enter a poem of your choice below. We only require creativity!!  Please only enter if you will be willing to try your best through 8 or 10 rounds. We put a lot of time and points and effort into this challenge. It is like a slap in the face when a poet simply does not make the deadlines that come hand and hand with this challenge. ENTER ONLY IF YOU ARE SERIOUS!

 

Good luck. We wish you all the best. If you have any questions or concerns as myself or Arkbear. We will be happy to help!!
