I'll Start what you Finish Quickie

Hello. 20 poets have about one hour to write a piece according to the below guidlines.

Reserve a spot, then I will give you ten random letters. You will then write a ten line poem using the letters I gave you (in the order given) as the first letter in each line. Good Luck.

Hints on what I do and do not like to better your chances of winning:

1. I don't like erotica or profanity
2. I do love very original and creative takes on ordinary ideas
3. I don't like an incoherent jumble of massive, dictionary words. Make it interesting, not hard to read.
4. I like normal typing please.
5. I love both rhyme and free verse, but the rhyme had better be great.
6. I like it when people have fun

Give me greatness people
