EMOTIONAL!!!!! Looking for the best.

I want real, raw, amazing writes. I want something that makes me laugh, cry, pissed off at the world! I just want absolutely beautiful and real poetry. Something that when I'm finished reading, I will sit back and say wow, that was perfection in a gift wrapped box. Ok?
Prewrites are accepted, but ONLY if they are truly captivating. If I don't like something I will remove it, Simple as that, no questions asked, no feedback, and no whinners. Keep in mind though, I'm not trying to be mean, I just don't want it in my contest. So I want talent.
One more thing, the poets who do fresh writes will probably be less criticized. I will add poems to the finalists as I read them, if you are not added to the finalists box after I read yours, it doesn't mean it wasn't good enough. It may be added later. And please, if I remove your entry don't take it personnaly. It just means that I didn't think it was AMAZING in the way that I want it. That doesn't mean your a bad writer. There is no such thing. It just means I don't think it is cut out for this contest.


Rules:
No sticky caps
No bashing other peoples poetry
Cussing tastefully is allowed
Erotica is ok, but no BDSM or sick stuff
*****NO WHINING!!!!*****

Good luck everyone! I hope it's a great contest!!

  • Wow.

    I haven't even read all the entries yet, but so far I have had some AMAZING poetry! You are all so talented.
  • I agree with Rye-09. Simply raw talent!
  • Please be critical

    OI....uM I just posted this poem, but i love critcism. it's not mad @ the world but it is realism. Please give me a harsh critque... 1 luv
    thanxs.
  • How Rude!

    Twice you have removed a poem of mine from your contest - if it's not what you wanted fine - at least have the courtesy to say what you felt was wrong with it. Yes there are some talented writes still entered here, but some of the entries in your finalist list contain spelling mistakes.
    Have fun judging!
