I am in a generous mood. I will be giving away points and comments.
The purpose of this contest is more or less to get a good critical comment on your poems from me, and maybe some of the other contestants if they so choose. Warning, I am harsh and opinionated.
Here's the low down-
Enter only poems that don't suck. NO emo, cutting, suicide, or forced rhyme (rhyme entries must be amazing or will be removed w/ or w/out comment.)
Please enter something creative & polished. Pre-Writes are open, but if they cause me to get a migraine, I will remove them, and block you if you try to re-enter the same poem.
I will comment every entry as it comes in. If you actually want to win the trophy/points, read my work or my favorites to see what has a chance. (I prefer blank-verse.)
Good luck,
Shirley
(Points will only increase if the entries, in MY opinion, deserve it.)

Oh, I am so sorry, Surely. I forgot I had taken that down. I entered it because it had some blank verse in it, but didn't realize I hadn't put it back up since then.
