Write however the quote inspires you.
It does not matter what kind of poetry you write nor form but please make sure it is labeled correctly.
I will allow prewrites but it must go with the quote.
Please try and keep it under 50 lines if possible.
Do not use the quote in your poem.
Please make all poems readable.
All site rules apply.
I will comment when judging but sometimes I do review the poem first before I comment.
Most of the time my comments aren't harsh but I will tell you if I don't like something in the poem, or if I can't read it.
I will judge this when I have a good amount of quality poetry.
Prizes may or may not increase.
Good luck!
