The sixth--~*~Options~*~

Hello everyone!!!
Welcome to my sixth contest

This is just an old average option contest with many, many, many, many options.

Before I get into the options though, here are the ever so popular rules.
1. No cussing (unless specified by me first)

2. No erotica (none of options will call for that)
-I have adult content blocked anyway so I won’t be able to view these to judge them.

3. No TyPiNg In ThIs FoRmAt (it’s annoying to type let alone read)

4. No text, IM, or e-mail lingo (bad grammar)

5. Spell check is your very personal friend (If I can’t read the poem because grammar and spelling is distracting, you WILL be dqed)

6. In the author’s notes put “the name of your favorite movie” and the number of the option you chose. If you don’t do this, you WILL be dqed.

7. Enter as many times as you’d like, and prewrites are allowed, if they fit the topic of the option.

8. Have fun!
Extra rules
1. If I do dq your poem, DON’T complain or get snotty with me. That won’t change my mind. I dqed you for a reason.(However, if you ask me NICELY with a GOOD reason that I should put your poem your back, I will. Politeness will get you a long way).

Now onto the options:

Option 1: Write a love song to the person you love or hate. (not a poem, a song with a chorus, and it’s original) (Also no erotica)

~Bleeding Love-Leona Lewis

(Put the title and singer in the author’s notes)

Option 4: Write a poem about Shakespeare.

Option 5: Write a poem about the greatest moment of your life.

Option 6: Write a poem about the thing that you are most proud of in your life.

Option 7: Write a poem about your favorite American Idol contestant this season. (Don’t dis the others, I may like the ones your dissing). (Put the contestant in the author’s notes)
