Somewhere Deep In Your Mind

Somewhere in the deep recesses of your mind

there is a poem to fit the above image,

not a description of it,

but deep and lateral thought extracted from it.

 

I want to be able to feel as though I'm living in the moment conveyed within your words.

 

* Any form, style is fine as long as labeled appropriately. 

 

* Anything I consider too graphic or offensive will be removed without warning.

 

* Try to keep pieces shorter than 40 lines.

 

Image is titled "sky smiles" by an artist unkown to me. 

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on May 10, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 100, Bronze: 60, Honorable mention: 10 people
  • Final notes:
    Thank you all for bringing such diversity of thought and much creativity to this contest.
    I was astounded by the amount of awesome pieces from this one image that I have had stored on my pc for a long time. I ended up giving out 10 HM's, something I have never done before, and sadly wished I could have given more of you something more than my sincere message "to keep the ink flowing with your wonderful words".
    Congrats to all the winners and to everyone for being inspired.
