Prewrites Shall Reign

I want your best prewrites. Not anything cheesy or stupid, but the best. I will kick you out if I do not think you are up for what I'm looking for.

I want poems with depth and meaning.

Line length: At the least five lines at the most thirty.

I will comment on every poem and would hope you take my thoughts into consideration.

Rules:
1. no erotica or adult content
2. no rhyme (can't stand it.)
3. no txt chat
4. Put name in authors notes please.
5. If i've read it I don't want to see it.

I will be adding more points as I read more poems. I like my contests to get into the thousands.

If I tell you to edit do it. I will only tell you to edit if I catch a spelling or grammar error. I will not tell you to change your ideas.

I judge fairly.

A Moment's Piece

My soul sings of silence,
a quiet soliloquy.

Frozen

My thoughts are bounding,
the whispers- deafening.
