.....Just Say 'F*ck the lemons' and bail.
This is my first rounds contest. The first round is simple. Give me your best write, The finalists will move on to round 2. There will be a total of 3 rounds, the next two will be fresh writes, with a prompt I will provide. More points to come!
*** The title and picture are not a prompt, this round is for prewrites and whatever you consider your "best" ***
Some Guidelines:
1. Spelling Counts! if you took the time to write a poem, take the time to look it over.
2. If your going to rhyme, do it well!
3. I may or may not comment, if you do not like this, then don't enter. I hate when I get a generic " your poem is cool thanks for entering" comment, so If I do not have anything of substance to say about your poem, I'd rather not say anything at all.
4. If I do not think your poem has a chance, rather than disregarding it, I will remove it, so you can re-enter.
5. If you are overly sensitive.....Do not enter =)
Have Fun!!
